I like anything with an engine, so I'd rock one for a while but I can't get over the price of those things.

Do you have any idea what she paid? I think in touring trim those things are well into the $20's.
I know it was into the 20's, but not sure exactly... I'm thinkin' low 20's...

Now I don't even acknowledge the riders when they're out. Might as well be in a car or on a snowmobile.
Agreed 100%.

Absolutely... That's ALL I could think of when I was riding it...

If anyone has tried turning one at high speed with just the handlebars, you know that it just turns on a horizontal plane, and it tries to yank you off in the other direction, hard. That is until the outer edge bites a wave and then you go over... . I can only imagine the Can Am feels like that around a corner because there is no way to shift the weight...
I had a Sea Doo and a myriad of Waverunners growing... it's sorta similar, BUT you cannot shift your weight enough AND it doesn't slide at all like a ski will...
