    But that being said...I'll play the devils advocate here for a minute. I'm wondering if BRP leaked these just to create a stir/buzz and get some attention in the communities. It's what is happening in this very thread isn't it? I'll bet that it will look much MUCH better when released.

    At the minimum, we can pretty much see that:

    -this is the new entry level spyder
    -it's pretty bare-bone...no windshield, no frunk (from what I could tell?)


    -looks to have an Ace engine from what we can see, probably the 600
    -BRP has tweaked some things like the rear swing arm
    -new radiator/heat management design to address the #1 issue with spyders

    Thumbs up

    I like the placement of your legs. Looks like they are in a more neutral position.

    Default And another photo...

    Now I like the look of this but think the bars need to be more forward and the pegs further back to give it a more street fighter feel (I know most Americans prefer the laid back position so I'm guessing that's why it's like this). With a more forward riding position it would almost be a 3-wheeled Katana from this angle. I also like the exposed engine, I've been playing with the idea of stripping some of the panels from my RS but the oiltank and rad limit what you can get away with.

    Question is, how big/powerful is that engine?

    Default I like it

    It is a naked bike! Way to go BRP..it is like a Ducati Streetfighter and Monter, BMW s1000r, MV Augusta , KTM, triumph speedtriple . All jokes apart, the new design should eliminate the heat transfer issues

    I like it.I think it looks good and more like a motorcycle than a Snowmobile.Hope they beef up the RTs in a similar way.

    The Spyder already has a street fighter look with the feet back and bars forward. RSS. It looks like this is trying to be a more cruiser look with feet forward. Not sure it works though.

    That was actually my wife's first impression too....

    "It looks like a nicely painted version of our lawn tractor".

    I still like it!

    I just hope that its got something much more special than the 1330 in there. Otherwise for me there is no sense of urgency to make the move to the F3.

    Wow that thing is completely different from existing designs. Tubular frame and swingarm and fender mount are really surprising to me. That is really good stuff, but expensive to produce. Nice touch. It also looks like they redesigned the gas tank to sit higher and more motorcycle like. This one should have absolutely no boiling gas or heat issues.

    Ugly I will keep my 2009 GS forever. Only 115hp that is pitiful, mine has more then that now with my mods and weighs about 50 lbs lighter. I thought they would really update the bike making it a lot more powerful and make it go on a diet and lose about a 100lbs. They need a full line of bikes like a touring, everyday cruiser and a solid sport bike.

    Looks to me that the seating position is considerably lower. Better center of gravity means much better handling. With the added power and if the seating/leg position allows for aggressive cornering, I bet that thing would just "RAIL". Would love to ride one to see if the foot/leg position is a cluster for performance riding. If it handles better than the current spyder's (which handle pretty picken good), I almost don't care what it looks like.
