Can Am Spyders, bike or not?
|
|
No.
I consider it a trike. Bike = 2 wheels, with or without motor. Trike = 3 wheels, with or without motor. Just my take on it. |

the prefix "bi" means 2. That being said, they're still pretty freakin' cool. |
It's a snowmobile with wheels... so it's definitely not a bike. I'd call it a trike.
|
NOT a bike. Fine for what they are and cool for anyone that rides them BUT definitely not a bike.
|
hells no

And for those who haven't had the displeasure of riding one? IT BLOWS! Seriously the most UN-fun thing I've ever attempted to ride. :lol: |
I don't think it is a bike. But I have to say the time I spent on it was fun. Not 15 0r 16k worth of fun but fun none the less
|
Not a bike, only acceptable for use if you are missing legs and/or arms
|
Pussy ass shit.
If I were disabled and have no use of my legs, I'd get the Piaggio MP3 500 scooter and put a turbo on that mutha. Or get a deployable training wheel and quickshifters for my other bikes. |
We need a that pic of the bike we saw at Indy last year that was modded out for a guy who had no legs.
|
There's a one legged guy in my town who rides a 2 wheeled scooter. Nice guy. Sits on his cane/crutch while moving.
|
|
Nope

That thing was the worst riding contraption in the world. The rear tire would be constantly searching back and forth as the road crowns and heaves. Going through turns, it leans the wrong way and the steering was so heavy it wasn't funny. It is not a bike, and not a trike, it is a raging POS. |
i thought it was fun, for what it was. it actually belongs to one of my friend's mom. She has that, her husband has a badass Connie 14 with every contraption you coulld think of (seriously, doppler radar on the gps) and the son has a zzr600. Pretty cool family.
|
It's an ugly Turd that they put Three wheels on...
So No its not a bike |
I've seen those at bike nights before.
Awkward... |

And HELL NO a Can Am is no bike! |
Is a victory???
I'd like to see them use canam as a stepping stone to building sportbikes. |
Damn it! I can't edit on my phone. I was thinking Polaris, instead of Bombardier .
|
Victory bikes are motorcycles. Damn nice ones at that.
|
Yup. And I was thinking the canam was made by polaris.
Which was my way of saying, I'd like to see a victory sportbike. |
I think you're right on both counts!!
|
22 no's and 0 yes's...I think I know how this forum feels. :lol:

They're definitely strange, but it's not all bad. A lot like riding a dual sport after proper sportbikes- feels goofy as hell, but it's fun once you get used to it. Personally, I would like to see some changes made to the spider to make it more sportbike-rider-friendly.
They could start by giving us a handlebar mounted brake lever!! Then lower the handlebars a touch, get rid of the ATV style footpegs... should I go on? |
No you should not. Its not a motorcycle! PERIOD! Hell its got a jetski motor in it!

Who thinks it would be wrong for me to look up who voted yes and out them?

bike, trike, sidecar...to me they're all the same. they're all motorcycles. they're certainly not cars. so i voted yes. when you argue bike and motorcycle it all just comes down to semantics. :D
|
But Kim... you were topless when riding the can am... it wasn't the bike that was attracking all that attn. :D
|
If the spyder is a motorcycle then my balls are worth 5 million each. Well, my right one may be worth more.
