I decide to do a little reading up on the can am. This a review from the first site I hit when I googled it....
"At first glance, one might not know what to make of the Can Am Spyder. It�s sort of a �reverse trike�, the wheels are fairly close in size: two 14� tires in the front, (yes, in the front!) and one 15� tire in the back. It almost looks like a recreational vehicle; as if they mounted a jet ski or a snowmobile on top of three wheels then called it a motorcycle. All I know is that never before have I been on a bike that attracts this much attention! Riders of every brand would stop me at intersections and ask me what it was, what it cost, and where to get one. Abercrombie clad, suburban teenagers came out in droves to say how cool it was. And from every building I walked out of, I would find men circling it in the parking lot. If dogs and babies are �chic magnets�, Spyders are bonified �dude magnets�."
Now really guys,...does that sound the least bit gay to you?....
...........
.....The review forgot to include the gay guys. That`s discrimination! I`m disappointed!
I thought the last three sentences just about coverd all the bases!....
.......I didn`t see the word "gay" though. Perhaps a few in the crowd.

I still think they are kinda neat and since I can't safely ride a 2 wheeler they are up for consideration with the Harley Trike and The Valky trike I looked at today. Need to go to Ft. Myers for a first hand look one of these days.
The one thing about all these new "cruisers" is all the toys I don't need or want, gonna have to check out "stripped down" models if there are any. Don't need an intercom, surround sound stereo, fancy chrome, enough storage for a modern kitchen, CB/FRC radio and on & on.
George Orwell was a Prophet, not a novelist. Read 1984 and then look around you!

No it didn't.
.........When traveling, I`ll look forward to meeting quite a range of the more dy-verse amongst us then. Whatever they may be.
Talk about gay [bleep]! Makes me cringe whenever I see jackazzes do that stupid wave, no matter what they're riding!
That is because you ignorant as to how it began or maybe just ignorant period.
Let me guess, a homosexual on a motorcycle headed north waved at another homosexual on a motorcycle headed south and a trend was set?!..
So I am guessing you will be at Sturgis this year to tell all the Bikers in the Saloons how gay they look when they wave at each other.I mean if you had a set and thats how you felt,I should expect you there .
Its all right to be white!! Stupidity left unattended will run rampant Don't argue with stupid people, They will drag you down to their level and then win by experience
I am waiting for the day that they start reporting that inexperienced riders are getting thrown off of them becouse they do not know how to handle them going fast around a corner.
If that long winded post was an effort to make these things sound cool you failed miserably....
Travis
..............Well Good! Because I wasn`t trying to be cool and frankly don`t give a rip that I failed miserably by your estimation.
Besides, it wasn`t by my wind which created that long post. And you could always be somewhat creative and use that round circular device attached to your mouse to either ignore that long post or maybe even choose not to read it??....
No need. I'm not bothered by it. But you were obviously expounding on how great these machines are. You just coated it with sarcasm.
i have never read a such a long post full of absolutely useless crap posted by people with absolutely no clue whatsoever what they they are talking about
2 entire pages of people talking trash about something they know precisely NOTHING about
i asked for information from people with EXPERIENCE... instead i got several pages of word vomit....

here we gooooooooo! Be Prepared. How appropriate! Especially, here.
Bubba, I don't see this crew being into much more than the below kind of junk. Having said that I bet there are 50+ can-am owners from here within the year.
