Mine is a 2018 RTL. The reverse quit working. The bike rides normally with the gear shifting up and down when at a stop. However, it will not shift down manually thus will not allow for reverse. Does that means that the problem is with the switch in the cluster? Taking the bike to my dealer. Still under warranty.

My 2018 RTL is acting exactly like yours. Will not shift into neutral and refuses to go into reverse. Forward gears are fine. Getting worse all the time. Anxious to hear what your dealer has to say. Can't take mine to dealer now because of upcoming trip (not on spyder).

Experience is recognizing the same mistake every time you make it!
I am with Grandpot on this one. Reason is that if I am moving in 4 or 5th gear and try to downshift manually, it will not respond therefore pressing the R to reverse has no effect since the minus button is not being activated by pressing. Waiting for the dealer to call me. I will post the result.
Ottawa-rider, I am not able to find this bulletin on the web and the one you posted is so small, can't hardly read it. Please tell me where did you get that, so I can download? Thanks a lot.

Grab the pic, and load it into some imaging software...like Infanview (free download) and you can resize and print it out...
All you need to know is when you drop it off at your dealer. Mention that you think the problem you are having is talked about in Warranty bulletin 2018-5. They can look it up.
Spoke to the dealer. They are replacing the entire left cluster. 7 to 10 days for the part to arrive. Question is: are they replacing with the exact same one or a new "improved" model?
