    Default Newb question: What do I get with my Spyder?

    I'm going to pick up my Spyders today. What should come with the Spyder? By that I mean, how many keys? Is there a printed Owner's Manual? Any other documentation I should expect?

    I just want to make sure all pieces are intact before I leave the dealership.

    Thanks!

    Docdoru,

    Thanks, but I'm buying the Spyders in MA (my home is in NH); I'm going to trailer them to FL in a couple months. Looking forward to doing some cold weather rides before heading south.

    You are buying two? Maybe they should include some free hats and Can-Am shirts.

    Besides the great list that Don provided, I also got a Certificate Of Origin For A Vehicle. This is a BRP document and looks/works like a title.

    I bought my Spyder out of state, so you may not get this if you are transacting in state and the dealer submits all the paperwork for your title and license. When I registered my Spyder, the NM DOT kept this document, though I kept a scanned copy for my records.

    There's a list in the owner's manual of what items are included in the tool kit. My kit was missing the front shock adjuster wrench, but it was a demo so maybe it was misplaced. If your Spyders are out of the crate I'm sure that you'll be OK.

    Most important thing that comes with each Spyder is the Y-Factor. It puts a grin on my face every time I ryde.

    Enjoy!

    Ryde safe,
