About this Operator's
Guide
This Operator's Guide was written in
North America in a right-lane driving
environment. Please adapt your ap-
plication of these maneuvers to your
jurisdiction and rules of the road.
In this Operator's Guide, the word
motorcycle
typically refers to a
two-wheeled motorcycle.
Keep this Operator's Guide in the front
storage compartment so that you can
refer to it for things such as mainte-
nance, road side repairs and instruct-
ing others.
If you want to view and/or print an ex-
tra copy of your Operator's Guide, sim-

The informations contained in this doc-
ument are correct at the time of publi-
cation. BRP, however, maintains a pol-
icy of continuous improvement of its
products without imposing upon itself
any obligation to install them on prod-
ucts previously manufactured. Due
to late changes, some differences be-
tween the manufactured product and
the descriptions and/or specifications
in this guide may occur. BRP reserves
the right at any time to discontinue or
change specifications, designs, fea-
tures, models or equipment without
incurring any obligation upon itself.
This Operator's Guide and the
SAFETY
DVD
video should remain with the ve-
hicle when it is sold.
Refer to Other Sources of
Information
In addition to reading this Operator's
Guide, you should read the Safety Card
on the vehicle and watch the
SAFETY
DVD
video.
If possible, take a training course
that is specifically designed for the
Spyder roadster. Check our website
at
www.can-am.brp.com for more
information about upcoming training
course availability. If you cannot take
a training course specifically designed
for the Spyder roadster, it is a good idea
to take a motorcycle training course,
since some of the skills required are
similar and information about man-
aging risk on the road is taught and
similarly applies to riding your Spyder
roadster.
