    Default Clunk sound and Vibration from front pulley?

    About 600 miles ago, coming out of Arkansas back to San Antonio, TX on my 2013 RT-S and I started feeling a sort of vibration which turned into a clunking sound. By the time I got to my Home outside of San Antonio it has gotten worse. I am afraid to ride it at this point with the clunk and vibration it makes seemingly every other rotation of the belt and in timing of the belt... Any suggestions? I am at a lose... I'm going to take the Tupperware off and do a look and maybe take off the rear tire and see if I can duplicate the feel and sound from the pulley. I am praying it is not internal or too much damage has been done. I will entertain any idea(s) to start looking at...

    Thanks

    Started 2014 with a 2013 RT-S SE5. Wrecked it April 2019 with a 200lb hog! I am Blessed because if that was a two wheel motorcycle, DPS said without a shadow of a doubt I would have been dead! Thank you Can-Am! The issue I had with GIECO is they told me not to take anything off the Spyder when I brought it in to their claims center because they paid it out as a total. I just had ELKA put on all around and over $7,000 in Farkle that I am having to replace all that I could have taken off the '13. Bought a 2014 with only 3728 miles! Love it! My therapy!

    Question More Information

    It would be really helpful to know the model and year of your Spyder. There have been a number of front pulley failures on some of the F3's (it seems rare on the RT's and other models). Please provide a little more information so that the technical folks can chime in.

    All the best ….. Ann

    Default It is a 2013 RT-S

    It is a 2013 RT-S. I installed the Baja Ron sway bar with the links. I looked at the front wheels all seems good with a little play in the right one. I isolated the "feel" "clunk" and sound to that of the belt or front pulley (sprocket) .
