2012 Can-Am Spyder RS-S

Spyder RS-S Spyder RS-S

The Spyder RS-S generates blood-pumping performance that goes beyond mere technical specs. Sure, the exclusive wheels, handlebars, spoiler - even the foot pegs - give the Spyder RS-S a menacing look. But the new FOX Racing Shox front suspension, the muscular 998cc Rotax V-twin engine and proven Vehicle Stability System give you one heck of a ride.
