  • While riding in New England, TommyG and I signed up for the Can-Am Experience in Enfield, CT and Mark's Motorsports, June 2023. We test rode 2023 models: F3 Limited Special Series and the Sea To Sky. We had so much fun as Tiffany led us on a 50 mile test ride. It's easy to sign up for the Can-Am Experience and well worth your time!

    Happy Independence Day, thank you for the ride along. Enjoyed Tommy-G's reaction passing the HD Dealership (Guess he didn't get bit by the Spyder, maybe next time). Hey Purple, I'm a new Spyder owner, I met a guy a few days ago with one of your T-CLOCS stickers. Are they still available, and if so, how can I get one? Safe Spydering!!.

I will gladly send you a few stickers, T-CLOCS and channel stickers too! Can you please e-mail me your address? My e-mail is in my about section here on CZcams. I am also on Instagram as Purple On Three and Facebook as Jody Shawley...those links are in my video description. So, what year and model did you get and how do you like it so far? Happy Independence Day to you as well! Be safe! ❤️🤍💙

      @@PurpleOnThree Wow, wasn't expecting such a rapid response. I purchased a 2022 RT Limited Edition in blue. Its ten weeks old this past Friday. I'm extremely happy with my purchase. It took several weeks to get the confidence to get out on the interstate, but since then I've driven it work on the interstate and through the local tunnel a few dozen time. My wife has ridden on the passage seat several times. Looking to join a group ride in the fall. I will reach out to you via one of the media you listed above shortly. Thank you for your response. Happy Independence Day to you and Tommy G again, Safe Spydering!

Sometimes I am more punctual than others with my replies...we are heading out on a long trip on Saturday so trying to keep caught up and even get ahead lol before we hit the road!

      Hello, Michele! Thank you for watching and commenting and riding along. Sounds like we should do a video/discussion about the coms as you and Grumpy have suggested....In the meantime, we use the Sena 20C EVO's as they capture audio and video. Now, I must say that Tommy and I were both a little disappointed with his audio ( I used my recording of the audio for almost the whole video...then later on you can hear him more clearly---at that point in time my Sena battery quit and we used his recording of the audio, so then my voice was softer and more muffled..). ..we are not sure why this happened so before we head out again, we are updating our Senas with the software and double checking our settings. We have used these for several years. The range can be up to a mile I would say...but sometimes if we are out of sight of each other, you can't hear the other person. Hope this helps for now!🤗💜

    If I got a Spyder, it would have to be orange or lizard green! That was mighty kind of Tiffany to take you on a 50 mile test ride. I could definitely see you on a new Spyder Jody. Life is short, so sweet talk Tommy G into getting you a new one!

  • @SpyderRichard
    @SpyderRichard Před rokem +6

    TommyG is right; the Sea-to-Sky needs a better factory installed sway bar, especially for the amount you pay to own that model of the Spyder. I upgraded mine three months after I got my 2022 Sea-to-Sky last year. Cheers PO3!

    As usual a very informative video, we always love how you an Tommy G interact. Glad you both got to do the Can Am Experience and test ride the new F3 and to see the sky RT. I have a 2022 F3Ltd which I love but I did get to try to see the sky and like Tommy says in the video I felt I was on top of it not in it. But it’s definitely very comfortable I love the floorboards, but I will stay with my F3. My wife took the experience and test rode the 2023 Can-Am Ryker sport which she loved and ended up buying one about a month later she now has over 4000 miles on her bike after 2 1/2 months of ownership. Can-Am does a wonderful thing with these test rides because it’s not just a short little around the block ride they actually take you for a decent ride so you can get to experience the machine.
    “We can all ride “is a good way of putting things I think Can Am definitely makes a great product And unlike other the motorcycle manufacturers they are encouraging a new generation of riders.

    • @PurpleOnThree
      @PurpleOnThree  Před rokem +2

      Thank you so much!! Well, I think the biggest thing is the seating position, the amount of plastic to be removed for working on your Spyder, adjustable windshield or not...and the seat itself in my opinion. Both have the same 1330 cc rotax engine and both are fun! Oh, also, the Sea to Sky has heated seats, and LED lighting, wind deflectors. But I would still take the F3! 😂🤗💜

    I ride a 2012 Spyder RT Ltd. I find the shifting is always smooth when I change up - I let the bike manage the down shifting. I feel the 6 speed and bigger engine would be a smoother ride and also more fuel efficient. I've never had any issue with the windscreen - being electrically adjustable I can raise it if necessary to reduce buffeting but I usually ride with it at the lowest setting to give me good air flow. The RT is very comfortable for a long day touring. These machines are meant for touring on the open road. The sportier versions might also be good for the daily commute but these are definitely touring machines. I hope you enjoyed your test ride.

    • @PurpleOnThree
      @PurpleOnThree  Před 4 měsíci

      Thanks for your response! I usually let the Spyder do the downshifting but sometimes I want a little more power, so will downshift. Also, in the twisties I like the ability to downshift when going down the mountain. We sure did enjoy the test ride and hope to be somewhere to test ride the 2024 models this year! Before the test ride I was sure I could not possibly part with my 2018 F3 Limited...after the test ride I was thinking differently lol. So what kind of fuel economy do you get on your 2012? I average 34 miles per gallon on the F3 limited. I like the looks of the F3 but it is also amazing to tour with! Take care and have a great week!

    • @rogersmith5371
      @rogersmith5371 Před 4 měsíci +1

      The 2012 has a 25 litre tank and when I use 98 octane I think the best I can get is about 7.5 litres/100km that compares with at best 4.5litres/100km on my Kawasaki Vulcan Voyager a 1700 twin with a 6 speed full manual shift rather than the semi auto of the Spyder. I use cruise control whenever I can and I set it a 100km/h - the national highway speed in Australia is 110km/h. I hope you can do the metric conversions. I saw Coach Bob just did some fuel economy runs for a Spyder RT - I think he lives in Florida and was riding into Georgia (does that make sense?). Coach Bob is on YT. Enjoy your ride wherever you're going.@@PurpleOnThree

    • @PurpleOnThree
      @PurpleOnThree  Před 4 měsíci

      Thank you. I appreciate that information! I know who coach Bob is and was blessed to meet him in person. 🤗 And also his beautiful wife coach vic! I did a comparison video with eco mode and regular mode and did not find enough difference to warrant using eco mode. With the help of Google I did a little converting of your numbers and it appears to come out to 30 miles per gallon and that's a little less than my 1330 which averages 34 miles per gallon and I use 93 octane sometimes 91 octane when 93 is not available. Tommy g's Harley weighs about the same as my spyder but he averages around 42 miles per gallon. I rarely use cruise control on the syider or in the car 🤷‍♀️

    • @rogersmith5371
      @rogersmith5371 Před 4 měsíci +1

      Those figures sound about right. I feel the @@PurpleOnThree 1330 with the 6 speed transmission would produce better fuel economy. I don't think mine lacks anything in power but a 6th gear for highway cruising would have made for better fuel economy. The Spyder seems to rev at a much higher rate than the Kawasaki (and I assume the Harley). I was told once by the Ford Motor Company that driving at 100km/h using cruise control was the way to get the best fuel economy so I do that even on my bikes plus it allows me ot get the right hand off the bars for a while.
