Hello everyone,

Just an FYI, that the 3-wheeled Spyder BRP web site is open. Styling looks 
good (except head on).

At a Glance:

Liquid cooled 998 cc v-twin engine, 106 hp, 77 lb-ft
5-speed manual or automatic transmission, + reverse
Antilock Brakes (ABS), Traction control, electronic brake-force distribution

Looks like a viable, and affordable toy!

PS: In the words of one friend of mine, it's nice to see Canadians making a 
product for a virtually non-existent market :-)
