The adventure motorcycle segment has more-or-less existed since the launch of BMW’s R80G/S in 1980, though it wasn’t until more recent years that the ADV space really began to explode in popularity. And while pretty much every major moto marque currently offers one or more adventure models, one brand noticeably absent from this space is Can-Am — which actually boasts a long history of churning out off-road bikes, albeit not in recent years.

Can-Am’s Canyon Is the World’s First Three-Wheeled Adventure Motorcycle

Adventure motorcycles are some of the most advanced two-wheelers on the planet. Not in the same way that sports bikes are, but in their own right. That is because our expectations of an adventure touring motorcycle have changed: we expect them to be good for trips that will cover thousands of miles on every conceivable type of surface, from tarmac to dirt. Some will even behave like large dirt bikes if you know what you’re doing. That means a lot of R&D by manufacturers, loads of technologies, and strong engines, all of which increase the starting MSRP.
