As part of its exclusive demo tour, BRP Recreational Products UK Ltd is hosting a series of demos on the Can-Am Spyder Roadster and bringing the Y-Factor™ to the UK during May and July.

Unlike any other vehicle on the road, the revolutionary three-wheeled Spyder roadster will be available at four locations around the UK for a series of action packed demo days giving you the opportunity to enjoy an exhilarating driving experience:

Mottram Hall, Macclesfield, Cheshire: 8 – 10 May 2009
MIRA, Nuneaton, West Midlands: 22 – 24 May 2009 (THIS BANK HOLIDAY WEEKEND)
Kempton Park, Middlesex, South London: 10 – 12 July 2009
Venue tbc, North London: 17 – 19 July 2009

The Spyder roadster has redefined the open-road experience, with its impressive stature and dynamic control.  It is a three-wheel vehicle (two in the front, one at the rear), that offers the performance of a traditional motorcycle with much of the peace-of-mind of a convertible sports car. It is powered by a Rotax® 990 V-Twin engine that produces 106 hp. 

Sure to give riders goose bumps, the Spyder roadster can reach speeds of up to 125mph and its state of the art power and technology means it is capable of reaching an amazing 0-60mph in just 4.5 seconds. The Spyder roadster’s revolutionary driving stability technology and superior ergonomics provide a unique riding experience.

If you want to experience the exhilaration of the Spyder roadster for yourself, register online at www.brp.com/en-GB or telephone 0808 202 3595 to secure your place. A slot will then be allocated and a confirmation number given; this with your car licence will be your ticket to ride.

A full pre-ride technical briefing and safety talk will be provided as well as the relevant riding equipment. Just bring appropriate riding gear, both parts of your full UK driving licence, your passion and sense of adventure.

Maria Whitlock, Marketing and Communications Advisor for BRP Recreational Products UK comments: “The Spyder SE5 allows even more enthusiasts to experience the thrill of the open road. It provides a perfect opportunity for riders looking for the latest in clutchless shifting technology and a thrilling, sporty, get-on-and-go ride".  She added: “It’s going to be a magnificent couple of days. The unique design of the Can-Am Spyder roadster means that the experience for our visitors will be electrifying, especially as it will be a first for most people.”
