 Air - escape
I rolled the spyder out of garage, Washed on it, Turned the key on to release the brake. And roled it back in.
Set the brake and - immediately on turning off the key ----- heard a instant Air escape. (sounded the same as
when you release a air pump from a tire) A distinct " Psssst ".
Never did have the engine on. Any ideas ???

It would help to know; a) which Spyder you have and b) how long you have had it.

Little checking
From your profile I see you have an RTS not sure the year but if you have the air compressor for the suspension it could be that without a load on the spyder at the time it let air out to level the unit.....

re - air escape
Good answer. I do believe you are right. Now I can sleep tonight.

The air compressor only operates if the bike is running and in gear. Sleep tight.
