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 cann ot tak e
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 an d information about man-
aging risk on the road is taught and
similarly applies t o riding y ou r Spyder
roadster.
