Commuting on A Can-Am Spyder F3 Limited: First Impressions & Tips 

Im from Australia and one of the best things about these videos is seeing other parts of the world , and of course spyder bikes .. What incredible roads and great views you all have ...

I ride a F3 limited. And I ride it to work and I tour with it. I love my F3 because I feel it is very versitale. Its comfortable and for me the riding style is perfect.

Thanks I was all ryker being my first but I had to think about long rides if I want to see family. My daughter also wants to ride with me and in fear of the "bottom out" I knew I had to do extra work for a smooth ride. Now I'm considering a f3 to just fix all my worries and concerns. This was very helpful in my decision making. Safe travels.

Great vid. My primary vehicle since 2015 has been my 2015 Spyder F3S with Blue Ridge windshield and passenger backrest. Got most of my 31k miles commuting 45 minutes between Cobb county and downtown Atlanta for what used to be 5 days a week at first, then 3 days a week, then twice in last 15 months. I’ve commuted in temps as low as 26 degrees (32 degrees is minimum now) with no heated grips or gear, and have not experienced a riding temp too hot. For the cold, multiple layers of everything, and since fingers are the first to fail, ski gloves over rubber gloves, and have tried WindBusters? Have my work backpack, with waterproof cover when needed, that straps to passenger seat (I never leave backpack alone on bike) and helmet I leave on bike and rarely lock (knock on wood). I leave overpants/boot covers/gloves/balaclava in frunk so only have to shed torso layers and extra socks at desk. Often pick up dinner for family on way home by putting what’s in frunk in backpack, or I carry the backpack and strap food to passenger seat. I used to even pick up my son from high school on way home, took extra helmet to work, and we both had to wear our backpacks for those 10 minutes home, but it worked. To me, commuting is about gear, preparation, and options. Be safe out there.

Shout out from Petersburg Virginia. When I get my Can Am Ryker or F3s,I want it to be my everyday ride unless it snows.

I commute every nice day on my spyder. All I need is a backpack for my stuff on most days. Thats what great about 3 wheels, they are great commuting machines.

Dude, I'm so jealous of you right now! LOL! Loaner Can Am Spyder, in Vegas?!?!?! Talking about best life! It's funny looking how light the Strip traffic is...Thanks for sharing the experience - like the perfect video for me driving an F3 in Las Vegas. And nice commentary on the differences of the Can Am lineup.

Think I’ve made my mind up on the ultimate touring machine. My choices were, victory vision (no longer around), Yamaha star venture/eluder, Kawasaki voyager, Honda Goldwing, Indian dark horse, Can-am spyder. Spyder wins! Biggest fuel tank out the group, unique and pretty stylish. Had a blast on a test ride also.

I ride my F3T to work and I have the night shift, so that in it self is an adventure on, but my commute is only 10 minutes the most,but when get off work in the morning the road is my mine I absolutely! Love it! I would say my next one will be an RT

Thanks for the ride along. Very cool.

Sup bro. Love ur video's man. Keep em coming. Seriously, but i commute to work graveyard shift in Los Angeles, Ca 10min ride and I have a total blast. Ryker 900 rally is fully visible with Slingmods front grill LED lights and LED headlights. Love my Ryker bro. Waiting a couple more days to receive my BLR Tune on my Dynojet I sent him. So many good reviews on the power difference with that Dynojet. Stay safe bro and continue to Bless Us with ur good quality video's🙏🏾👊🏾💯

I want the spyder f3 for trips, exploring new places etc..... Can't wait to get one

Loving the F3. Never rode a traditional motorcycle because it was a little outside of my comfort zone but the Spyder is perfect for me… I would go so far as to call it addictive

Great video, Khalil!

I have a 2015 Spyder RSS which suits me well for a 20 mile ride to work, however, lately I've become more interested in long trips(10-12 hours). I think the F3 touring might be what I need. Being a tech, I too can appreciate the ability to ride in to the office with minimal gear, get my job done, and get back on the bike.

at least they finally came out with the 3 piece luggage set for the ryker. makes it somewhat better for traveling. get the ultimate seat and you're good to go.

Gorgeous bike!

Nice review well spoken covered all of the scenarios.I teach the three wheels class. Being a rider coach having the pleasure of experiencing the Riker to the RT limited, at 63 my choice is the RT so your correct in saying it’s your Choice and enjoy the ride.

Nice, this will be my upgrade, right now I commute in a Ryker 900 but looking into this one

Bruh!! Me and my wife have 2 F3t and a RT !!! Enjoy your ride!!!!

That’s bangin bruh!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

I guess I have a commuting bike and a touring bike because they are one and the same 😊. I have an F3 Limited and work in a very small business. Everyone knows what everyone drives... It's that small, lol. I wear ATGATT, but my riding over pants zip off easily. Love my heated grips for 30 or 40 degree mornings. Enjoyed your video ... Just found your channel and will be watching more! Thank you and stay safe! 👍😊🏍️💜

Great video. Thank you for sharing this.

I currently ride a Ryker and never want to part with it but now I'm looking at a Spyder for longer trips. These things are addictive.

I have a 2017 F3 LTD I cant ride it to work (I wish I could ). But I am riding from New Jersey to the Blue Ridge Parkway in June. Spending 10 days of the the parkway , the tail of the dragon , the rattler, and any other ride there is. This bike is fun on the curves!!!

Lots of great comments and perspectives. Thanks for this one.

You hit all the areas I was thinking about. The Spyder F3 Limited sounds like the choice.

I ride two wheels but love riding my 2017 daytona F3 also, especially on iffy days that might have some rain.

That bike is absolutely beautiful

Well!! Thanks. Just Thanks. 🙄🙄 After watching this a few (several) times, my friend Edward decided that I should meet him at a dealer in a close by city. Long story short, next Wednesday the dealership is coming to get my two Triumph bikes as down payment towards the Sea and Sky (?) model. Just too good of a deal to pass up. Never have ridden a bike without a clutch. I am going to miss those Triumphs. 😆👍

I am test driving the Ryker and Spyder on Monday. Great video. I like the Ryker but I also want to drive comfortably on the highway. I do like the storage on the Spyder....I could add the bags on the Ryker. I want a smoother ride....so I am swinging towards the Spyder F3. I guess my test drive will help me pick! LOL. Hi from Nova Scotia, Canada.

You are riding the exact Can Am I want, a red Spyder F3 Limited with the chorme accents. We currently own our second HD Tri-Glide and they have kept us ouit there riding, but they are boring. The HD is like riding a 1937 mototcycle. Sure mechanically they've been updated, but they had the trike platform way back then. The Can Am is where it's at, new styling updated mechainics, all the newer electronis equipment. I'm SOLD and Iwll be looking for a Spyder just like the one you were riding this Spring. One thing never mentioned about is when you ride a HD or Gold Wing trike you have to be mindful where those rear wheels are. It is very easy to hits curbs, gas pumps, cars in parking lots, grocercy cart holders, ect. ect. ect. Whereas on a Can AM you're wide stance is up front and you know every second where they are and automaccily steer clear of such objects. Bye bye Harley.... Hell-o Spyder. Ride safe and enjoy every journey.

Super Thanx for Posting Bruh!!

I'm thinking the F3 T for my new ride. And I work in IT. So, I'm glad to know that it should be good enough to at least carry my laptop case and any other equipment I may need to bring.

The ride looks so smooth … acceleration effortless, I am tempted to go out and try one of those beauties. But in the end, sanity prevails. The wife isn't having it. As usual, great commentary Khalil, Stay safe,

I only have about a 20 min commute. Just switched to a 2021 RTL Marsala Dark from a 2015 RTS SM6. Put 34k on the 2015.

Thank you I just made my mind on spider rt

Most Definitely brotha, Most Definitely.

I have a F3L which I do ride to work, about 18 miles.

I'm about to bite the bullet and buy an F3 Limited, black, chrome edition! Very anxious.

I’m thinking of getting a Ryker 900 for an hour commute over some really twisty roads. I’m a novice rider and I’ve seen that it can be very tiring on the arms to muscle the Ryker through a lot of tight turns. Would the power steering on the f3 make a big difference? I was hoping to keep it to a lower cost model but maybe that’s wishful thinking. Thanks for the awesome videos and guidance! Would love to see vids on Ryker accessories and also riding twisties.

Man, I just traded my Ryker for this exact same bike,color and all. I Love my new Spyder F3

I live in Ohio and I’m seriously debating getting one of these as a daily driver for when the weather isn’t COMPLETE trash. I don’t drive a car, but I’ve been really drawn to one of these and then using public transportation for worse days.

I have a ryker, thinking of getting a F3. Did you feel a lot more heat on your legs, than the ryker ?It was a f3T I test drove.

The ryker is a smaller bike and less easily seen by traffic vs the spyder. That is a big factor.

Needs a “Shaft Drive” like the Ryker!

Very good! I think my mind is made up. I’m switching from 2 wheels to 3 👍🏻

How about the performance

Smart words..

How is the riding position? I prefer the ryker , because I sit down in it , not on top of it , how does this compare?

What are your thoughts on the new Can Am Sea-To-Sky? I am thinking about buying one as a retirement gift to myself.

Nice bike

Very interested in taking a more-fam-focused experience to my olde ZX7 days and this vid tends to help me add to the QV portfolio... but seeing you build a vid from the left lane (without passing at all, as in zero attempt) is puke-worthy lol. "Never let the law in get the way of a true story," I got it. But still.... maybe we just wanna come into work appropriately idk. All good & good vid.

Rt limited. But I want a new f3s.

If Ryker has heated grips and cruise control, I’d buy it. I don’t give a crap about blue tooth and all that. I ride to free up from that junk.

I sure wish folks would adopt a chest mounted camera and ditch the helmet cam. It's just so much side to side movement. It's completely unnatural to watch. But, it is what it is, I guess. Cheers.

Or a raptor 700 srs

seating position looks cramped

You could probably wear dress clothes on a spyder. Cool bike.

Riding is fun but screw going to an office and being around gross people! Virtual is the new age!

I waz l👀king at the F3 limited so the Wife & I could do some traveling she shoot me down faster than Trump at BLM convention, but she agree on F3T that waz my first choice ✌🏽🤴🏾

show the bike stop talking please
