Any Way to disable VSS/Traction control or severely dumb it down?

[DickB]

I have a 2023 Ryker 600. New to me maybe 400 mi. Going down the road at 45 mile per hour It seems like the brakes are being slightly applied. Can this happen without getting any kind of light in the display?

Could use more details. What exactly makes you feel that the brakes are being applied? Is it a steady feeling or more like pulsing on and off? Straight or curve?

Straight flat road. It would be random pulsing. Could be slight stumble in the engine but at the high RPMs doesn't seem likely. or maybe?

[DickB]

It could be something faulty in the stability control, such as a bad Steering Angle Sensor or Yaw Rate Sensor, but I've only seen problems reported in curves. As you are under warranty, I would have your dealer check it out. whatever it is, it's not normal.

Could be belt slippage. Have you checked your CVT air filter?

At 400 miles?

Does it happen only at that speed, guber?

Okay I checked it again. I found it appears/I noticed it when I had the cruise control on. So it must be the engine modulating the speed. Not the smoothest operation.

I've not used cruise control a whole lot, so I can't comment there. But I'm glad to hear the bike's okay.
