At the heart of the Can-Am Spyder RS-S sits a Rotax 998 Cc V-twin, liquid-cooled engine with electronic fuel injection and electronic throttle control. The engine generates a maximum output of 100 Hp (74.5 KW) at 7500 rpm and 80 Lb-Ft. (108 Nm) of torque at 5000 rpm.
The handling is assured by gas-charged front shocks with an anodized-aluminum body and threaded preload adjustments.
