Can-Am, builder of epic ATVs, Snow machines, and Seadoos, decided in 2008 to build their concept of a rider safe motorcycle, and thus the Can-Am Spyder was born. The first “backwards” trike, the Spyder is an extremely stable and safe bike that has more features packed into it than you can imagine. With a single driven wheel in the rear and two steering wheels in the front, the Spyder provides more stability than its 2-wheeled rivals. The design makes the transition to open air transportation much less intimidating for new riders and riders with physical limitations.

 Even though it’s not technically a motorcycle, it is licensed as one. Most states will even let you take your motorcycle license road test on one.

The Spyder RS is the basic entry level version of the Can-Am Spyders, and although it has the fewest features of the Spyder line-up, it comes packed with some pretty awesome things. It actually has so many cool features that we decided to make a list of everything it comes with. Each Spyder model variant after the RS has everything the RS has and more.
