Nigerians love luxury ranging from cars to gadgets, homes etc. No wonder companies like Porsche, Ferrari, Rolls Royce take Nigeria as one of their main markets. Recently, A BRP Can-Am Spyder Roadster was spotted in Lagos, this range of motorcycle is not easy to come by as its a rare commodity but trust Nigerians to always go for something that’s not common.
A quick review of the BRP Can-Am Spyder Roadster shows that it was manufactured by Bombardier Recreational Products. The vehicle has a single rear drive wheel and two wheels in front for steering, similar in layout to a modern snowmobile. The Spyder uses an ATV-like chassis. The manufacturer refers to it as a “roadster,” but in technical terms, it is more of what has been traditionally called a trike. The Spyder was officially launched in February 2007.
Features
The Spyder has traction and stability control, and antilock brakes. In most US states the Spyder is licensed as a motorcycle. In California, Delaware, Nevada, and South Carolina only a regular driver’s license is required—however, helmet laws apply in California as they do for all motorcyclists.
There is luggage space under the hood at the front of the vehicle top boxes and other accessories for the Spyder are also available.
The Spyder also has front and rear brakes which are both actuated by the same foot pedal, a reverse gear, power steering and an optional electric shift (clutchless) transmission.
The 2018 model is reported to cost $20,299 which amounts to 10.6 million naira.
