I would think/hope that Can Am adopts a similar system since this is the trend in motorcycles. Like the H-D Boom! and the new Indian system.

Previously 2008 GS SM5 and 2014 RT SE6

I would agree with this. I can't believe this didn't happen 2 years ago. BRP seems to be lacking in these creature comfort accessories compared to other bikes in a similar price range.

I always wanted to see an infotainment system on the Spyder. This could signal a change in the future of the Spyder?

Really...🤔
more things to take your eyes off the road... Seems the only difference in the models is a fatter tire and a bigger radio... Like Bob said it make for a nice little sports car.....

What you didn't see the accessories yet?? You can get a rear fender now.. That lotus is pretty sharp too.

It looks very similar to the Indian Infotainment

Perhaps alike as they now have the same parent company.
I have a CVO with Boom!. Very complex but very powerful. Took a long time to get comfortable with it to make less distraction going down the road. I am told that CB radios have run their course and keep getting more expensive install in an integrated system. The multi-brand group (about 80 members) use CBs a lot.
To each their own. I was able to choose my rides; others should be able to do the same. If i chose to buy a convertible or open top, it will have 4 wheels and an air conditioner.

I rented one for a day in Maggie Valley. It was a blast. Cornering is dead on with a lot of power. Loved it. When the day was over I got back on my RT. Thinking about adding a Slingshot to the stable.

How many actually look at the Analog gauges on the Spyder?
I seem to focus more on that square screen to look at my speed and if they add something like an infotainment system that has all that built in I am for it..JMO

I see the new 2018 Indian have the Ride Command System on them now too.
Are the Spyders next??
And a larger trunk like the F3 limited for the RT models?

My infotainment is my phone and my bluetooth helmet setup... No fancy additional screens needed and my eyes never leave the road thanks to voice commands via my phone and BT setup with SENA.

If you have any hip, knee or other issue, the Slingshot might be for you. My buddy has to help me in and out of his. Fun, but never a replacement for my RT IMHO.
