2017 Can-Am Spyder F3-S
The new 2017 Can-Am Spyder F3-S features
a new setting called Sport mode. It switches off the traction control and
optimizes the Vehicle Stability System to allow for controlled spinning of that
solitary rear wheel for grin-inducing burnouts and drifting.
Power comes from a 1330-cc
three-cylinder engine rated at 115 horsepower and 96 lb-ft of torque, mated to
a transmission with six speeds (plus reverse) available in either manual or
semi-automatic configurations. It also features Brembo brakes and Fox gas front
shocks, as well as dynamic power steering, cruise control and ABS.
Inspired by the turbocharged concept
revealed earlier this year, the production F3-S does without the turbo spool.
But it is available in a special Daytona 500 Edition, featuring special
graphics, spoiler, grille, wheels, seat cowl and drag-style handlebar.
Pricing starts at US$ 21,249 for the new
F3-S and US$ 22,249 for the Daytona edition. The long and short of it, though, is
that it looks like about the most fun you could have on three wheels.
