2016 Can-Am Spyder RS – Sport Performance With Three-Wheel Stability

The 2016 Can-Am Spyder RS delivers a bold blend of sportbike attitude and three-wheel confidence. Designed for riders who want aggressive styling, strong acceleration, and enhanced road stability, the Spyder RS stands apart from traditional motorcycles while still delivering an engaging, performance-focused ride.

With two wheels up front and one driven wheel in the rear, the RS provides planted handling in corners and reassuring braking performance. Its low, stretched stance and forward-leaning ergonomics give it a distinctly sporty feel, making it ideal for riders who enjoy spirited road riding but prefer added stability and electronic rider aids.

Performance and Ride Experience

At the heart of the Spyder RS is a proven Rotax V-twin engine that delivers strong mid-range torque and smooth power delivery. Throttle response is crisp, acceleration is confident, and highway cruising is effortless. Riders can choose between a manual or semi-automatic transmission, allowing the Spyder RS to suit different riding styles and comfort levels.

The sport-tuned suspension and wide front track inspire confidence in corners, while electronic stability systems quietly work in the background to help maintain control during aggressive riding or less-than-ideal road conditions.

Designed for Control and Confidence

The Spyder RS is equipped with advanced electronic rider aids that integrate traction control, stability control, and anti-lock braking into one cohesive system. Dynamic power steering reduces steering effort at low speeds while maintaining a solid feel at highway speeds. Together, these systems make the Spyder RS approachable for experienced riders and confidence-building for those new to three-wheel platforms.
