New wheel nuts are in. They will be installed tomorrow.

There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.
RECALL - ALL 2019 and 2020 Ryker Models - Wheel Nuts
- Thread starter jcthorne
- Start date
I called the closest dealer to me. They told me they wouldn’t order the parts until I brought it in. They had one that had been parked in their service center for 10 days and parts still weren’t in. A couple days later the dealer where I bought mine called me up and said they had the new wheel nuts in stock and I could bring it in and they’d change them out while I waited. Just another reminder why I choose a dealer 40 miles further away when I bought it.
Anyway—it was a beautiful day today for a ride through the north Georgia hills. Blue sky, cool temps, leaves changing color. I only waited about 20 or 30 minutes then I was back in the road. The dealer told me he already had two come in with cracks but the wheels were still rolling just fine—not the catastrophic failure I imagined.

I contacted the dealer a little over two weeks ago and they said they would be getting the new nuts in the following Monday and they would call me to come in and get mine replaced. I called last week, and they still haven't arrived (supposedly) and they said they would call me. Still no word, but they said that they would not recommend riding it until the nuts were replaced.

All ways post the Dealers name so we know where to go and not to go. Please
Mountain Motorsports is the dealer closest to me. I think everyone in the Atlanta area knows who they are because they bought almost every other power sports dealer in Fulton county. They don’t have a great reputation, they don’t like to negotiate price, when I had them give me a quote they made it seem like the maintenance contract was required and their delivery and dealer prep fees were crazy high. I drove out to Cartersville to Extreme Propulsion. Really nice people and they gave me a great deal when I bought. This was my first interaction with Extreme Propulsion post sale and I like them more, now.
Received a call from my dealer/service that said the wheel nuts are in and they gave me an appointment to have mine replaced this week. Although I would rather that I had a perfect machine, I do not mind getting recalls on it if they are diligent and professional with me. Anyone that expects a perfect design with no flaws in the first year, is really not being realistic. As long as they correct the problems before injury occurs, I'm satisfied. Once the kinks are ironed out, I expect a few years of enjoyment. This thing is a great idea and I would like to shake the designer's hand. This comes at the perfect time in my life when the body is starting to fall apart but the mind is not yet ready to hit the rocking chair on the porch. If you can still drive a car, you can operate a Ryker.
When it was built doesn't matter its the designation of the model year. For example 2020 Rykers will have an L as the 10th digit but are being delivered in 2019

Every new model of every vehicle has some sort of a recall or another. Please name me one vehicle (car, truck, motorcycle) that NEVER had a first year recall.
Lets add to that...Not every Ryker is affected by this recall.
Also...my Ryker was supposedly built during the "recall build period" and I don't have the issue.
Actually, there IS a recall on 219 Aust delivered Can-Am Rykers redback - check this out from the ACCC/Product Safety Australia :-
https://www.productsafety.gov.au/re...brp-can-am-road-ryker-trike-range-my2019-2020
But if your Ryker's VIN isn't amongst those listed in the VIN list attatched to that recall, you should be fine.... We do tend to get our Can-Am releases a fair bit later than those in North America, so BRP Australia & our Dealers tend to have somewhat more opportunity to detect & correct this sort of thing before the vehicles hit the streets here.... but I reckon I'd still be including an inspection of those nuts before EVERY ryde, at least for a while - just to be sure to be sure! :thumbup:

Recall on wheel nuts
Just received a recall notice from BRP/Can Am in reference to the Wheel Nuts on my 2019 Ryker Rally. Says that there is a problem with them cracking, but that it is safe to continue to ride that the safety pin (Red Pin) would prevent the Wheel from coming off. I think I'll park mine till my Dealer replaces the Wheel Nuts. My Service Dept. ordered them today, I'm curious how long it will take before they come in.:dontknow:

Even after owning a not cheap aluminum bicycle frame that cracked in 2 places after 3? years of riding (2,400 miles?)...I have full confidence in the my pre 2/19, and the brand new nuts. I just have to do my part in maintaining them, just like anything else that I want to last a good while. Time and mileage well tell.

I got my wheel nuts replaced today. It took them less then 20 minutes to change the all three. Wheel nuts look little different. Original wheel nut was much narrower. I was able to see bit of space end of the lug nut and the little red pin. Now with the new lug nut there are not spaces between end of the lug nut and red pin.
