suspension fault ???
Once again I must defer to you peoples expert advice (and I thank you for it ) but twice when I have taken my wife for a ride , we have gotten a suspension fault and then that kittle exclamation point appears, the first time I stopped and did a walk around and I did not see anything out of place but i did sniff that hot rubber smell (!!) but we continued on home and I looked in the manual (which tells u nothing). It was okay then or so it seemed. Then yesterday we went for a ride of about 70 miles and just before we got home the same thing appeared but I finished coming home same again no apparent issues but the hot rubber smell was present (??) again I looked in the manuals but nothing to tell me what suspension fault means. We have a 2019 F3 Limited with about 2300 miles on it. Any ideas as to what this is ?? (oh and neither of us are in the heavyweight division)

Next time it happens you go into the menus and get the active fault codes. From that someone can look it up and give you more detail.
It has come up a lot lately that the ride hiegth sensor is disconnected. It's on the left, connected to the swing arm. Take a closer look there.

The rubber smell maybe from the Cat close to the rear tire and or crap being picked up off the road and laying on the CAT.
Seems a lot have noticed the burning rubber smell. Mine smell went away when I removed my CAT. Should not hurt anything if you continue to smell it.

How is it riding, dose it seem to be bottoming out on bumps? One of the first things I would do is what Billy suggested check to make sure you arm is connected to the leveling switch on the left rear of the bike, it hooks to you swingarm and go's to a switch on the bike frame!

It's still under factory warranty, visit your dealership.

otherwise be a vulgar brawl.

Check the inside of your rear fender and see if the tire has been rubbing .

hello, i have the same problem . i just have a new spyder f3 L from last saturday . It happens twice on the highway when i road above 120 km/hour. I stopped for 5 minutes , turn the ignition of and the warning went away. Later that evening i drove with my son and it happened again only above 120/km hour .
Yesterday i drove 200 km alone and it did not happen . but i don't hear a pump sucking air or anything .
to check the system , do you have to remove the 2 side panels ? and does it hurt to the mashine to drive
i want to look first myself because my dealer is 150 km away and opens only from tuesday .
sorry for my bad english

Go up to the rear of the bike on the left side, on your hands and knee's, follow the left side of the a arm from the axel up and you should run into a tab welded on the top with a nut insert in the back, it should have a arm bolted to it, that go's up to a box! If it's hooked up then you have a different problem, if it's not hooked up do it, that's a metric thread on that insert, and when you put a bolt in it you may have to hold the back with plyers! If that's all hooked up and the compressors not working then check fuses and connections for looseness! Good luck!
