What Do You Call These Things?

[Drifter.]

If you say I have a Spyder people think Yikes eight legs and fuzzy and start looking for the can of Raid or recommend an exterminator, slingshot kinda works because it is logical and has the shape of a slingshot but that name has been taken by Polaris. Reverse trike causes brain freeze. 3 wheeler not well either people think trike with 2 real wheels in back. So it seems People just have to learn a Spyder relates to these critters and let it go at that or..........:dontknow:

[Grandpot]

I call it "Velocity Therapy." Zooooom!

 

[AY4B]

Ive never had that problem, Just the opposite, people compliment my spyder everywhere I go to the point where I feel like Im running from the popperatzi. Im sure most here feel the same way.

 

[Bob Denman]

I call it "Velocity Therapy." Zooooom!

Here is another one, when we go out with our Pit Bull Shirts or hoodies most people think we have pit bull dogs. So we just roll with it, Jim

 

[Pirate looks at --]

Well

We call it a Can-Am Spyder!

 

[Chupaca]

Here's the thing....

Call it what it is...A Roadster... :thumbup: There are other vehicles out there called spyders/spiders which is a model name for a brand. I first caught wind of it as a can am roadster and still find it to be more of a lobster than a spyder...:roflblack:

 

[Bob Denman]

I'm reluctant to use the term, "Roadster" to describe them... nojoke

To me; THIS is a roadster! :bowdown:

 

[Gator37]

I just call it FUN.

I don't have to "call it" It's always right where I left it.

Sandra

I call mine "Sandra", which leads to the question "Are you a straight man now?". No I am still a gay man and here is a picture of my Sandra. Sandra is the pet name of my Can-Am Spyder. When I show picture of her from my phone the picture tells the rest of the story.Most people that know I have a Spyder and know the pet name, will ask me "How's Sandra?"

 

[ARtraveler]

I still call it "motorcycle." Old habits die hard. :roflblack::roflblack:

 

[NorCalBud]

Its a.....

Sorry dude, but it's a SPYDER! Can Am Spyder, Spyder RT, Spyder ST or whatteva... SPYDER. I guess it's time to break out the Raid...

 

[Bob Denman]

I just call it FUN.

Gator's right... :clap: :2thumbs: :firstplace:

 

[Mazo EMS2]

We refer to ours as "the bike"...It's hard to get away from calling it that after calling the two wheeler "the bike" for so long. I know what it is, that's all that matters :yes:

 

[Bdomini]

How 'bout this

Tell them it's a Canadian-American higher order Arachnid.

 

[flaggerphil]

I constantly have people come up and say "I love your bike!" My wife and I both call it the bike or the motorcycle. Don't need to call it anything else.
