2015 Can-Am Spyder STS Totalmotorcycle.com Features and Benefits

POWER AND CONTROL

The Rotax 998cc V-twin engine delivers crisp acceleration while 7 automotive technologies like anti-lock braking, traction control, and a semi-automatic transmission put you in control, making your ride as confident as it is exhilarating.

POWER AND PERFORMANCE

With 998cc, the powerful Rotax V-Twin engine delivers crisp acceleration and plenty of torque. Its electronic throttle delivers instant response and optimum fuel economy.

RESPONSIVE AND EASY

You can choose between the semi-automatic or manual 5-speed transmission, both with reverse. The semi-automatic transmission uses paddle shifting for faster, smoother shifts without a clutch lever or foot shifter. The manual transmission’s fluid motion stems from the 5-speed gearbox created specifically for Can-Am Spyder.

DESIGNED FOR OPTIMAL CONTROL

Developed in partnership with BOSCH and inspired by automotive technologies, the Vehicle Stability System integrates anti-lock brakes, traction control and stability control for an incredibly confident ride.

EASY TO MANEUVER

The electronic power steering system provides a varying amount of assistance depending on the speed of the vehicle. So it’s always easy to manoeuvre and steer.

POSITIONED FOR BETTER HANDLING

The bike’s unique suspension geometry redirects forces to reduce load on suspension components, minimize body roll during cornering, and maximize tire-to-ground contact. The end result? Tighter turns, more precise handling and a more comfortable ride.

PRECISION CONTROL

Specifically designed for Can-Am Spyder by the world leader in braking technology, the system ensures excellent stopping power and consistent performance.

TIGHT CORNERING PERFORMANCE

Gas-charged front shocks with an anodized-aluminum body and threaded preload adjustments for sport-tuned handling.

TAKE IT EASY. TAKE IT ANYWHERE.

From its rider footbards to its adjustable windshield, the Spyder ST-S is designed to be as comfortable as it is good looking.

VARY YOUR POSITION

You get more foot positions with these vibration-damping driver footboards, a real benefit on long rides.

LIKE CLIMATE CONTROL

Adjustable windshield and removable wind deflectors enable you to customize your wind protection to match the weather conditions.

GET SPORTY

There’s more room to move, especially in more active performance riding, while firmer foam ensures all-day comfort.

CUSTOM COMFORT

Your passenger will appreciate the custom placement of the footboards for a perfect fit.

Cruise Control

JUST RELAX AND ENJOY

Set a comfortable pace so you can just sit back and enjoy the scenery.

READY TO GO

The Spyder ST-S is ready for a road trip with ample storage for long journeys, along with easy-to-read digital gauges and an electronic command center.

TAKE IT WITH YOU

Keep your gear safe and protected. The Can-Am Spyder’s trademark lockable front storage features 12 gallons (44 L) of watertight space.

CONSTANT PROTECTION

The Digitally Encoded Security System (D.E.S.S.) helps protect the Can-Am Spyder from theft or other unauthorized use. The vehicle will not start unless the rider uses the correctly coded electronic key.

INFORMATION AT A GLANCE

A vivid, full-color digital screen allows quick access to key vehicle information such as speed, trip distance, and RPM.

SPORT-TOURING GETS AN EDGE

The Spyder ST-S has a stylish edge with the machined Carbon Black front wheels, high style front fenders and Can-Am Red accents that turn heads.

GOOD LOOKS AND BETTER GRIP

15-inch front wheels with low-profile tires and machined 6 twin-blade spoke Carbon Black Satin front wheels. Includes refined front fenders with integrated LED light pipes for a premium look.

Front fenders with integrated LED light pipes for greater visibility, improved aerodynamics, and a more striking look.

GET NOTICED

Unique Carbon Black treatment on the handlebars, foot pegs, rear sprocket and springs adds a high-performance attitude.

Custom Bike Looks

Stylish, sporty accents provide give your Can-Am Spyder even more high-performance attitude.

STAND OUT

Choose from four eye-catching dual color schemes, each with signature RS-S graphics and Can-Am Red accents for a striking, performance look.
