2013 ST

I ride a 2013 STS SM5 and find it very comfortable and capable as a touring machine.
The 2014 side panels correct the heat issues. The side panels are replaced by CanAm as a good will gesture for free.
I added BajaRon sway bar and Elka shocks and Front springs for a better handling ride. The 998 engine is bullet proof.
I have 13K miles of smiles and looking for many more. At 20K I will perform a major service and check the valves and replace the air filter, plugs and wires. All will be DIY as the machine is not hard to work on during the winter hibernation.
Good luck on your search.
Cheers, David C.

I am itching to move to 3 wheels. I have been researching and have almost changed my mind about a Can Am product. I have been on two wheels for 40 years and have had no trips to the mechanic to speak of. I am looking at a 2013 ST with 9000 miles but it seems that the 2013’s have some issues. They are asking $9100 for this unit and it seems to run okay. Just nervous about purchasing a 2013. Thoughts?View attachment 158642View attachment 158643View attachment 158644

My wife (Poor School Teacher) had a '09 RS and moved to the '13 ST-S, SE5. She Loves it. Rides it to school & whenever she can. The riding position is much more comfortable. She has the same color. IF you are buying from a dealer, you want them to install the updated vent panels. (Service Bulletin, not a recall) In photo#2 you should see a vent in front of "CAN-AM" This will cool the rascal down. Go Forth!!

happy with my purchase

I am happy with my purchase so far. I don't scare easily. I have had it 30 days and have put over 2000 miles on it. Sweet machine.
