BRP goes touring
BRP is responding to customer demand for a more touring-friendly model and they’ve come up with the Spyder RT-S. Please keep small children and livestock away from the gaping maw in the front where they may risk being swallowed up like a goose into a jet engine. According to BRP, “The introduction of the touring model coincides with a substantial gain in market presence on the heels of strong consumer demand since the roadster’s launch more than two years ago. Driven by a passionate owner community, the innovative three-wheel concept has become a global phenomenon in more than 50 countries to-date with authorized BRP dealers.”
What drives it?
The Can-Am Spyder RT roadster powered by a Rotax 991 engine with Electronic Throttle Control optimized for touring. The roadster features the same acclaimed BOSCH-engineered Vehicle Stability System (VSS) as found in the Spyder RS roadster, which includes Anti-lock Brakes, Traction Control and Stability Control systems.
But wait, there’s more
And, if you can visualize this, BRP is also introducing an RT622 trailer package, designed specifically for the Spyder RT roadster and compatible with the vehicle’s stability system. No photo available, unfortunately. “The introduction of the Can-Am Spyder RT now provides options for sport and touring enthusiasts alike,” said Chris Dawson, vice-president and general manager, International division. “BRP’s superior design and innovation continues to deliver paradigm-shifting vehicles that push the envelope, and the RT model is no exception. The new platform goes well with what touring riders demand and there is no doubt in my mind the Can-Am Spyder RT is going to forever change the touring motorcycle category.”
