    I think BRPs biggest mistake was trying to make the spyder too much like a snow mobile and not a motorcycle initially. This is where all tge heat issues have come from..they finally decided to build it like a motorcycle.

    Is this going to take the place of the GS/RS or is it a new model with its own niche?

    I like the riding position and the exposed engine; the front end not so much. Maybe when I see one for real it'll grow on me.
    That is my opinion as well.

    As I stated before, I like the new direction... without a doubt.

    However, is it me or does the tail light unit look like an after-thought? It sticks-out from the fender in a peculiar way, which does not appeal to me.

    So... I see an opportunity for the after-market-guys (and gals) to come up with a custom replacement.

    I would hope there would be a windshield option. I love the look of this bike. Really like the openness of the motor. Great job BRP

    Okay, splay-legged, forward peg, drag bars.... a three wheeled boss hoss. You all know Can Am cannot ignore the cruiser market forever. The nose kind of reminds me of an early 70's Camaro ? While not my cup of tea (the bike not the car), I'm sure they will sell a lot.

    One can only hope that will be the case. That is one ugly machine and beyond that since looks are subjective - the thing will not handle with that seating position. For all you boulevard cruisers - this is your machine.

    It looks to me that there could be two riding positions... Notice what appears to be another set of pegs just behind the front set; obviously passenger pegs, but if the rider were to use them he would have a riding position more like the RS/RSS. Just an observation...

    It looks like there is a partially exposed engine as well. Maybe the '15s won't have as many heat issues.

    That thing is muscular looking! The only thing that doesn't seem to fit with me is the handlebar tubing. Maybe a trapezoidal tube handlebar riser powdercoated black would be nice and fit the chiseled angles of the rest of the machine. A single rectangular box arm to hold the rear fender would be cool too. The round tubes just look too delicate compared to the rest of the machine. Well done BRP. When I get rid of the '10 that will be the next one. Only have about 24000 on the '10 so it's going to be quite a while. :-(
