    Default 2018 Spyder RT Parking Brake

    We are having trouble with parking brake. Would like to spray some cleaner on the switch. Anyone have a diagram of how to get at it or where to get one.

    Hello Wallysea, the parking brake switch is on the right side behind the panels right about where your knee would be when sitting on the bike. What is your parking brake doing?

    I's most likely the PB motor. When you try to turn it on or off you should hear a sound and if your foot is on the brake pedal you'll feel it. I had to have mine replaced under warranty. I had to remove the cable from the rear caliper so I could ride it to the dealer. I carry a set of collapsable wheel chucks now, just in case.

    Just what kind of problem are you having with the parking brake? Does it sometimes work and sometimes not work? Will it set but not release? Will it not set? Please be more specific.

    otherwise be a vulgar brawl.
