You own a Gen I RT with a 998. 2014-2019 saw the Gen II RT with the 1330 ACE. That evolution, in itself, made the RT a completely different machine. Now the 2020 RT (Gen III) has a lot of good...

Well, I've been following this long thread because I only recently became aware of M2. Up until about the first four months I owned my '15 Spyder RT-S, I was an Elka Fan. I still like Elkas, but I...
To the original question, the 2019 RT isn't something to "stay away from." It's internals, essentially are the same as all the great RTs since 2014 with the 1330 ROTAX ACE, Brembo Brakes and all the...
There is absolutely no validation to rumors of a 1632cc ROTAX ACE for the 2020 Spyder RTs (or F3s for that matter). What the RTs need FAR more than a larger engine is a frame and skin facelift. The...
Front Sprocket/Spline failure ... Now we know it happens on RTs.
Symptom: You're accelerating from a stop or to pass and suddenly you hear "brzbrzbrzbrz" coming from the front bottom near your...
Just happened to me in the right-turn lane at a major highway. :-(
Half hour baking in the sun waiting on the tow (which AMA wouldn't cover because I couldn't call from the membership card at the...
I have never owned an RT-622, but purchased a Freedom Trailer to compliment my new 2015 RT-S.
The Freedom Trailer will serve the purpose, but it has nowhere near the refinement of the RT-622. The...
I have this one:

Looks good on the bike too., vs. that 'basket' or BBQ grill effect.

Floyd, thank you so much. We have OSR scheduled on our October 2014 Calendar. Hope some of you guys can come out and see us as well.

The Maryland Spyder Web (MSW), is moving strong into its 2017 ryding season. As we move into our **eighth** year, we remain the premier Can Am ryder and touring organization in greater Maryland, DC,...
I am the President of the Maryland Spyder Web (www.meetup.com/marylandspyderweb) and host a roster of over 100 ryders. Of those who participate in our rydes, we have a handful of '13 RT owners. ......
Yeee-hawwww! Nice ST.
:yes:
I have had my "Elvira," a Timeless Black, 2010 RT-S Premier Edition (#391) since January 2010. It's had a handful of small issue items (NOT a lot of bugs, per a previous poster). The recalls...
There is a difference in curb weight between the RS and the RT of 227 pounds. A bit less of a difference between the ST and the RT. The RT has always been a bit obese for the 998, although it...
That Kuryakyn has now gone four years without recognizing there is a major market out there called the Spyder RT SE5 and failure to produce a clamshell (like the 6183) to fit the RT SE5 it is...
Hi gang ...
In Maryland? The Maryland Can Am Spyder Web (www.meetup.com/marylandspyderweb) is hosting another great local ryde this weekend on Sunday, September 1st. We meetup in Sykesville, MD...

Dear MASR/SR Alumni … It’s time again!
The Maryland Can Am Spyder Web (MCASW) (www.meetup.com/marylandspyderweb) is again sponsoring/hosting the Fall2013 Mid Atlantic Spyder Ryde and Scooter...
This promises to be a great tour! We will rally in Hampstead, MD, then ryde across to Havre d'Grace, and then tour the Northern Eastern Shore or into Delaware, winding our way down to an overnight...
First, the Can-Am Spyder RT, RS and ST are not "crap." The 2010s and '11s had some recall bulletins which were easy to attend to and apply. Some of the vitriol blaming the machine for incompetent...
Wow! I just sent an email to their contact page. If I get a response, I'll post it in this thread.
Best,

Leading whoever wants to go, out of Westminster, MD to Gettysburg, PA for the last day and grand finale of the Gettysburg Bike week. We will focus on the Allstar Events Center venue.
Please see: ...
Thanks, Bob ... yes ... this is vastly different than Can-Am's 'Y' factor design, including suspension and body/fairing characteristics. Comparing the two is like apples and grapefruit. It's simply...
I'm always interested to see another mainstream manufacture doing things in the three-wheel market. Then too, a Spyder is a Spyder and whatever anyone else makes is their concept. While I've seen...
She's dressed in Timeless Black ... delicious suspension, low and sexy. Her name is "ELVIRA."

Well, me too. One day a week, July 8 - September 20th.
I head up the Maryland Can Am Spyder Web (www.meetup.com/MarylandSpyderWeb) and draw interested folks from MD, VA, PA mostly. We just...
In 2010 I went to Spyders in the Smokies - Gatlinburg. Lacking of some things I would've liked.
In 2011 I went to the Spyders Owners Event in Maggie Valley. Lacking of some things I would've...
Greetings ...
On Tuesday, June 18 ... early afternoon, you will be seeing eight RT's rolling through Chambersburg on the first leg of our five-day, four nite US-6/Grand Army of the Republic Ryde,...
This is the kind of thread that I'd like to see Lamont come in on and deeeeeee-lete! It's not constructive, doesn't support the community and offers mostly heat ... very little light. There are...
There are a number of moving parts here (not on the Spyder, but in the details). The 12K service is the first 'biggy' for Spyder. The Maintenance Schedule talks about labor-intensive things like...
