WHAT’S DIFFERENT ABOUT THE SPYDER ROADSTER
Width
Because the Spyder roadster is wider
than a typical motorcycle:
– Keep the front wheels in your lane
during turns. Be particularly aware
of where your front wheels are in
curves and when passing. If you
take a path that would put a motor-
cycle’s front wheel near the edge of
the lane, the Spyder roadster’s front
wheel may be out of the lane.
– Don’t share lanes or split lanes
(ride between two lanes of traffic).
Group riding should proceed in a sin-
gle file, even with motorcycles.
– Be prepared to swerve farther to
avoid obstacles.
Reverse
WARNING
Do not engage reverse while riding
forward. You could lose control.
The Spyder roadster operates in re-
verse like a car. However, there are
some important differences:
CAUTION
Always keep both
feet on the pegs while operating in
reverse. Never put your feet on the
ground while backing-up.
– The hazard warning lights flash
when it is in reverse, but there are
no backup lights. Be aware that oth-
er motorists might not know that
you are about to back up.
– If necessary, have the passenger
dismount if your visibility is limited.
– Remember that the front is wider
than the rear. Don’t back up too
close to objects or you may hit them
with the front tires.
– Keep your speed low and do not
back up for long distances.
– When possible, park so that you do
not have to back out of the parking
space.
– Shift back into first gear before shut-
ting off the engine.
Driver’s License and Local
Laws
Driver’s license requirements for op-
erating the Spyder roadster vary by
location. Depending on local laws, you
may need a motorcycle endorsement,
three-wheeled vehicle endorsement,
or just a standard automobile driver’s
license.
Check with local authorities to make
sure you have the proper license be-
fore operating the vehicle on public
roads.
