Make sure your brake fluid reservoir is full.

+1 on checking the fluid.
The parking brake is electrically operated......so there is no way to "make sure it is fully down".
Also be sure you aren't "riding the brake" by accident.

The 'parking brake' is cable operated, but it is my understanding it has nothing to do with the brakes, it just locks the transmission up.

Does the Ryker have the same parking brake set up as the Spyder where the cable applies the rear brake? Inquiring minds want to know

No. After you stop and apply the 'parking brake', you can get off and by hand roll the bike back and forth a few inches and then you can hear and feel it locking the transmission up.

Much like.....
Much like the fuel level can vary with the angle of the ryde.... you know up hill down hill.... the brake fluid can do the same if a bit low. Agree with BajaRon on checking the level nonetheless....

What do you mean by "fully down" ?
It is a combination of an electric solenoid (motor) and a cable.

There is a new service bulletin pertaining the the Master Cylinder Diaphragm needs replaced. My dealership told me about it yesterday and ordered the parts. I haven't had any problems myself, but the dealership is being proactive.

Oops. Sorry.
In my defense, the "subscribed threads" scan does not show which section the posts are IN.
(Yea, weak excuse......but it's all I've got.)

Ok additional info please for us without a Ryker, does it fuss (alarm beep)at you when you remove the dongle with Pbrake not on, or when you apply throttle when in gear & Pbrake is on? My Spyder does anyway, but also has a key not a dongle thx
