It's dope, it's inspiring to me to let go of my bike. I'm on the fence with keeping it or trading it in, but seeing that you let go of your bike is real inspiring.
I am 64 and I have a ryker for the last 3 year and love it , I don't do long road trip but last Week did a 2 day trip 630 mile , that was fantastic, I hope you have a great trip on the spyder Alain & Yellow the rydker
Peace to you my F3 sister! Came across your channel and I have to show love to each and every one of my Spyder brothers and sisters! I feel we are a very rapidly growing family! Hey I dig this channel cause you and your husband cracked me up! Glad you got your girl fixed! Any way safe travels to you and enjoy that Spyder life!💯💪🏿
@@adventuresoffearlessfaith ooooh I look forward to seeing what type of shenanigans you get yourself into! That darn Spyder tends to make you crawl it right into some questionable yet fun situations sometimes!🤣🤣🤣💯💪🏿
@@adventuresoffearlessfaith good morning, and same to you sis! Of course I’m riding this weekend. I’m actually working and I feel like it’s alone and I’m neglecting it right now! Yes I’ve developed separation issues from it! I may need Spyder rehab 😂😂😂🤣
BRP has a lot of work to do to improve its dealership network that sell their CanAm, SeaDoo and SkiDoo products. Improvements on their sales and after-sales service. I agree with your husband; there are too many know-it-alls on social media regarding the Spyder. There are, however, many RUclips channels that I found helpful. I am glad you have found a dealer you can trust with your F3. I am fortunate to have an excellent CanAm dealership that has provided excellent service. Have a blessed trip! Cheers!
Good Morning! It's hard to get Can Am service. We are lucky that we found a dealer that we trust, treats us well and takes care of our Spyders. We had less than a stellar experience with other dealers. It can be a hit or miss. I'm mechanically inclined so I take care of oil changes myself and save money. Houston traffic, yeah, I'll pass on that. 😂. Y'all be safe.
Yes the husband takes care of all the wheels but sometimes he loves having options…but trust me if could retire he’d probably have his own Spyder Garage 😂
Hello, I don't know much about can-am Spyders but I have a 2010 CVO Street glide with 320,000 miles, (yes I lived on it for almost decade) Any place that uses or recommends belt dressing is a place you should run away from, all that stuff does is hide or mask the issue. Belt squeaks are always either the tension or the tracking. if it's squeaky something is out of whack and adding belt goo just masks the noise until you are down the road away from the dealership. Any best of luck and ride safe
Yes indeed🤣🤣🤣 45 will always test you faith 🤣 over all they Lucas in the service department took heart care of us. Out of all the Mancuso locations... I think they will be our go to for future issues should the need arise. They seemed the most knowledgeable as far as service departments go. Congratulations on the prospects of getting your new Can-Am bike🥳 keep me posted... I'd love to know all about your new adventures😍
Sorry, hubs, but Can-Am's have been around since 2008 I believe so yes, someone could have that many miles...my 2018 that I purchased at the end of 2019 and didn't ride until 2020 has 76,000 miles on it. My hubby's HD has 77,000 on it and it is also a 2018. My 2018 still has the original belt and no issues. As I said in a previous comment, I believe I've had 4 sprockets total (three before the recall).
my mate and me totally agree...can am should do better to have dealerships that service can am products. Especially since more and more people are getting into the brand...we'd even wonder where you can take the training to service them and to be certified. I'm a 3rd bike owner and not real happy with some dealerships with service. Can Am help your riders out...we deserve better.
There's a local mechanic near us... T h o r n o l i 's... Owner James Thorne. They are a godsend. He has a wonderful Home garage shop that serves Can-Am Spyders in the Houston Texas area... Actually from all over Texas. When my husband doesn't have time to get things done we just booked an appointment with him and he takes care of us. But like my husband said I'm a little jaded... 🤦🏾♀️🤣 From hanging out with Harley-Davidson Riders and being a part of a hog motorcycle riding chapter. Harley-Davidson sells one thing... motorcycle bikes. And then they have their clothing line, gear, parts, then they actually have chapters attached to their dealerships that they sponsor, then they offer challenge coins per state that you can ride to have your picture taken with your bike and get a Harley-Davidson recognition coin from the state showing that eventually you rode your bike in all 50 states. If Can-Am offered just a smidge of what HD has... They would rule the market because women are the number one consumers. Hell! my husband has two Harley-Davidsons bikes because of me 🤣
Isn't it sad that Can Am is such a great ride, but they just can't seem to find a marketing niche?! At least here in the USA. And yes finding good service locations and dealers can be real hit and miss. Be diligent, put it in His hands, have run, and ride safe!
You are a hot mess if you can’t ride your Spyder there in Huston on I-45. You aught to come to Puerto Rico and ride then! I ride my Ryker900 to the beaches in the mountains with cliffs and roads so thin , only one car can pass you by at a time with no guard rail. I have to ride 110 miles to San Juan from Cabo Rojo to get parts. An I am 74!
Agree. I think they push it alright...sales...and then who knows? I ride 250 MILES for service because I trust THAT dealer. I've leaned to do my own oil change. I'm just gonna say it...Can-Am needs to step up their game in some ways...love my ride for sure but there is room for improvement. I sit at my dealer during service and see the same DRAB Can am clothing that has been there for the past year. I have a Can-Am rain coat and a crew neck sweatshirt...both men's and they are BORING!! Sorry...did not intend to rant lol...
A hot mess all over, lol. I had a few sprockets changed before the actual recall. Your hubby is an ANGEL!
Houston traffic is a nightmare. I spent a lifetime there one year!
Yes indeed... It's not for the faint of heart 🤣
It's dope, it's inspiring to me to let go of my bike. I'm on the fence with keeping it or trading it in, but seeing that you let go of your bike is real inspiring.
a jack of all trades a master at none but oftentimes better than a master of one
True! I've heard that one🤣

Good hubby. Man after my own heart.

Indeed. Especially with the marketing they do for women. They are really leaving money on the table.

I believe the "300,000" spyder miles was not on one individual Spyder...that person has had several Spyders over the years...just sayin
