Rear passenger seat belt

[cribby]

Hi

Ive just been told by the dealer that from January 2017, all European Spyders fitted with back rests will have to have a passenger seat belt fitted? I asked does one have to be fitted if a front back rest is fitted, and the answer is no, just the rear. Can Am are rolling out small side fitting brackets to attach the seat belts to and these should be available around December, price to be announced?

Anyone heard anything about this?

The length of time it would take for this DUMBA** idea to happen here ................Well I'm not concerned, and I plan to be riding at least another 20 years :yes::yes:..................Mike :thumbup:

I think the seatbelt is for the back riders who cannot manage to stay put or keep falling off. LOL

Bungee Cords........At least that is what I tell my wife I am going to get for her in case she falls asleep when she is in the back.......:roflblack::roflblack:

Hi Ant
I think your dealer has a calendar from another planet and thinks it's April 1st.

I emailed BRP and this was their reply

Dear Mr. Shoffren,

Thank you for contacting BRP customer service.

We have confirmed with the appropriate department, that there will be no need for any seat belt for the Spyders with rear beckrests.

Ask your dealer if he thinks they can breed elephants with highway boards or horses with heated saddles

Completely uninformed bilge! Your dealer is either making it up to impress you with his knowledge or
I want some of what he's smoking!! Mind you some of the crap coming out of Brussels (EU HQ) is equal in stupidity.
