    Default BRP Welcome to the family Packets

    Is BRP still sending out to the New Spyder Owners/or the current spyder owners( that traded or up- graded )" Welcome to the Spyder Family packets"?

    Inside the packet a spyder patch/ pin, with cards to give out to people that are curious about the Can-Am Spyder. Deanna

    That certainly sounds like a good idea, and I would like to have one. But, I bought my Spyder 2 months ago, and haven't gotten a "Welcome to the Family" packet.

    I bought my RTS September 2014 and had heard of the packets, so I reached out this last spring and they said they do not do that.

    When I upgraded to my current spyder( 2014RTS-SE6 cognac).

    I did receive a folder with a Can-Am Spyder 2014 Riding gear/ Accessories/ Genuine parts, and with a spyder patch and pin, and with cards ( that you give to people that you meet @ the gas pump, in the parking lot) Also it mentions the " The spyder Achievement pin program. It mentions when your spyder odometer clicks off, 5,000, 25,000 and 100,000 celebrate by going on -line and apply for your achievement pin."

    In the folder I got a letter saying " Congratulations on your purchase of this unique and exhilarating Can-Am Spyder roadster, etc. with a picture at the bottom of the letter of a 2014 RTS-SE6 cognac. Signed " Sincerely, The Can-Am Team. Deanna

    I purchased mine in September of 2014 and all I got was a lot of disappointment when I talked to my first dealer about a 3k mile service. Fortunately I found another dealer that has been top notch.

    I bought mine in February of 2014, and got the packet in September. I must have been at the tail-end of the program.

    Good question Deanna.

    It is sounding and looking like the welcome packet is no more. Kind of sad, because it was nice to receive a little gift after making that multi $K purchase.

    It seemed to be good/bad. We kind of figured out that they were sending out the packets quarterly. If your dealer timely registered your , it got in the welcome packet queue for the quarters mailings.

    I got packets for all five of mine from 2008 through 2014. I guess I get no freebies if I purchase number six.

    I think I got a kind of "unique" packet in 2009 (second year of ). Along with the patch, pin, and advertising materials, I received a pin that said "2009 Ambassadors" and they included a really nice photo album for me to put our ride pictures in. No letter of explanation--just the extra goodies. I still wear the pin on my "trophy" vest. I guess that I was one of the early ones to buy a in two consecutive years.

    Currently Owned: 2019 F3 Limited, 2020 F3 Limited: SOLD BOTH LIMITEDS in October of 2023.

    Previously : 2008 GS-SM5 (silver), 2009 RS-SE5 (red), 2010 RT-S Premier Editon #474 (black) 2011 RT A&C SE5 (magnesium) 2014 RTS-SE6 (yellow)
