@@wedabrowns Thank you! I'm bummed I didn't get the first 10-15 minutes of the demo ride filmed because I missed my actual first impressions, but I think the rest of the video turned out ok. It was my first time ever riding one and I fell in love with it. The F3 limited is definitely going to be my next bike at some point.
Glad you enjoyed the F3. I have an F3L and Love It!!! Hi Purple 😇 These are great riding and handling machines. And with a few suspension upgrades, so fun to ride! Better get one!
I was really blown away by the comfort, handling, and ease of use. It really did feel like I was cruising around in a recliner/couch. I wish I got the first half of the ride on camera, but I wasn't able to start my gopro in time. This was my first time ever on a Spyder after riding 2 wheels for the past 10 years, but the next "bike" I buy will definitely be a Spyder now.
@@MRJ7986 i’ve got my eyes on a 2023 RT brand new for 20,000 flat but I like the sportiness of the F3 T . They also have one of them for 22,500-2023 brand new. There is a Can-Am dealership in my town. Which one would you buy if you had the choice?
@@jeremy8829 Good question! I sat on a few RT's, but didn't get a chance to ride one. The RT felt more like I was sitting on it, instead of sitting in it, as it has a higher seat. Higher seating position, and the large floor boards gave me more of a "sitting on top with my legs under me" type of feeling. The F3T had more forward controls and a lower seat height. I preferred the seating position of the F3 Limited over the RT personally. If you're familiar with bikes, and mid vs. forward controls...I would say the RT feels a bit more like being on a goldwing with you sitting up higher and your knees bent more 90*, and the F3 Limited felt more like being on a Road Glide with your feet farther out in front of you, and a lower, more "in the bike" feeling seat.
Glad you enjoyed your ride! I've let many two wheeled riders test my 2018 and now my 2023 and they all said what you did...different than they expected! I refer to that takeoff as the Spyder Launch.😁😁I can take my hubby on his HD Ultra Limited in the quarter mile. Well, there are times when it's not like a couch...rough roads with crazy uneven pavement are a different story...my hubby could go faster on his HD in the Yukon and Alaska than I could on my F3. 8800 RPM's is where the nanny kicks in 😁😁
Hello PurpleOnThree! I've watched many of your videos, and it was surprising to see your comment. I appreciate you taking the time! I really enjoyed this demo ride and definitely plan on getting my own at some point. It was a great experience, and I can't wait to ride one again.
@@MRJ7986 Thank you for your reply! I'm so glad your video popped up in my feed today. It put a smile on my face to hear the joy that that demo ride brought you! When I get a chance I will watch your ryker demo. And I really appreciate you watching my channel when you have the opportunity. Did you happen to ride an RT? 💜🤗
The 2nd half of this demo ride was on a Ryker Sport, I posted another video right after this one. I'm glad I was able to ride both back to back. I was impressed with the smoothness of the CVT and fun factor, but I definitely enjoyed the F3 Limited more due to size/comfort. It was a blast to zoom around on though.
@@MRJ7986 Just finished watching that one too! I want a Spyder, would lean more towards the F3S (sportier), but price really slows me down LOL. Thanks for sharing your experience. Was enjoyable to watch.
@@brentgath4447 Thank you! This demo ride was the first time I had ever been on a 3 wheel vehicle, so it was a really cool experience to see how they felt. It was cool to see how user friendly and easy they were to ride for someone who had never been on one. I've had motorcycles over the past 10 years, but as I've gotten older I found myself drawn more to the Can Ams since they just looked really relaxed and comfortable while still being fun. I liked them a lot more than I even thought I would. It might take a year or two, but my next ride will probably be an F3 Limited when my wallet allows it. I don't think I could justify buying another 2 wheel bike when I had this much fun on the Can Ams.
@@MRJ7986This makes sense. Ive always said people who make fun of these rides have never ridden them. I’ve had my motorcycle license for 33 years. I’ve always owned sport bikes. However, three years ago at 46 I was diagnosed with an inner ear disease that has kept me from being able to safely balance on two wheels. I really was depressed for a year until a Can Am dealer opened near me. I immediately went on a demo ride with the Ryker. I was hooked right away!! No fears of losing balance. I only wish I had tried the Spyder prior to pulling the trigger on the Ryker. But I’m just thankful I have one of them and can still get out there and ride and have the wind in my face. Huge quality of life for me.
I could see myself driving this little expensive thing everyday, so neat
Your review was the tipping point for me over getting the f3 limited !!! Great review. I got a “new” 23 and it’s amazing

Nice! I own a Ryker but would love to hop on the Spyder.
