    Don't know why these things ruffle our feathers so much. Glad there are different options out there. To each his own. It's actually way cheaper to love what you have and hate all others. Way narrower minded and superior than thou too.

    Why waste your time reading this? There's always a few guys like this on this forum, why go looking for them on other forums?

    A typical post from someone who don't know a thing about the product or has an axe to grind against BRP.

    Remember the early revues when the first came out? They were laughable also.

    I don't agree r with his conclusions, but I have to admit that he was quite humorous.

    I wonder if he had gotten on of the ST's with a bad set of ball joints or a bad alignment.

    I read all his comments and response, and although I completely disagree with his opinion, he sounds like a guy who I'd enjoy meeting at a bar and talking about rides over a beer.

    We might even have something in common about ex wives.

    OK. Maybe I'm weird, but I actually thought it was funny. I don't agree with it at all, but I did think it was funny.

    Default Yea right

    What a DORK, I can see why your wife has problems, living with you and your attitude has to be the greatest lifetime experience. I believe your only reason for going there was just to ride all the different models of bikes for FREE, GET A LIFE and don't be so negative about things before you try them, ENJOY THE EXPERIENCE.

    Bob,

    You failed to recognize that poster. He was that Spyder expert with the 250cc dirt bike following a Spyder in the video he was shooting, from about a month ago. Remember the idiot pulling wheelies to impress; but, having a hard time keeping up with the Spyder. I believe same negative comments.

    This sure won't be the first time that this has happened!
    It sounded familiar; but we've got lots of sources for this kind of trash-talking!

    I test drove a Mack truck. I hate that thing. Handling was so bad, I couldn't make a turn without running up on a curb. I think I'll stick with Autocar. At least that thing is more comfortable.

    Hey Bob, where did you find the picture of my former boss?

    Sometimes it is wiser to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt...
    A reviewer does his/her audience a great disservice if they provide a review from a viewpoint that is biased. to read his post is to believe the Spyder has a host of Cons and not a single Pro. I know of no successful product that can have even a modicum of sales with such a business model. He would have been better served (and his article taken more seriously) had he objectively listed what he liked in addition to what he didn't like about his Can Am experience. I have ridden and driven several vehicles over the years (yes, including having owned a Yugo in my teen years) but have never experienced one in which I felt had NO redeeming qualities. Even the Yugo was attractive for the pricepoint...

    But alas, this is simply one man's opinion...

    I was a body and paint guy when Yugos were being sold and I can honestly say the best part about them is you could rip the damaged fenders off with your bare hands. They just took a good tug! Saved the shop a ton of man hours not having to use tools. One of it's redeeming values.
