New Spyder

[FF7485]

Hello Everyone,

I am new to the Spyder category and I was just wondering some things. I bought a 2010 RS-S-SE5 Pearl White with 15600 miles on it. Got a good deal I am taking it in the a Can Am Authorized Dealer this Tuesday. I was just curious what I should be looking for. Cars I am pretty knowledgeable in. However, this is completely new. I know the oil change was done every 3,000 miles. Has new tires, and brakes. That is all the paper work had. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks So Much.

I would say you are in pretty good shape. Almost all of my problems with my 2010 RSS (Pearl White) where self inflicted. I shifted at 3500 RPM before I knew better and eventually destroyed the trans. Almost flipped it hitting a giant hole on the shoulder on 95 (Not my fault, cager was forcing bikes off the road so he could make an exit... but it trashed the left wheel bearing).

Did it come with the Can-Am luggage bag? That was the special edition color that year. I remember something about getting the brake fluid changed around 15k but it might have been 25k. I put the manual in the bike when I traded it in. Either way it was a colossal waste of time and money.

Just curious, what dealer are you taking it to? If you don't mind the one hour ride I would suggest mine:
