2010 RSS heat and squeak

[kdee]

Took "Lottie" for 3 hr road trip. Lots of heat on the right side (leg is a bit pink). Anything to help on this model/year?
Also noticed, as I rolled into town, I had squeak as the wheels rotated. Could this just be a stone in the brakes or is this a common problem?
Hope none of this will affect my road test on Monday.

Enjoying my "bucket list" adventures.

Hi kdee

Re: Lots of heat on the right side (leg is a bit pink). Anything to help on this model/year?

This guy's parts took care of that problem for me: http://www.spyderpops.com/

His Air Management System moved the heat down & away from my R leg.

Have to agree..!!

:agree: spyderpops has been fixing this issue for a long time. The air redirect and radiatior blocks did the trick for me as well on our RS. Basically the same :thumbup: the squeak could be brake dust grit in the pads just need to localize the source and clean the area....

Take BOTH the underside Panels Off and the heat will Dissapate a lot better. Most people take the Oilchange under panel off BUT Most Take both sides off to lessen heat?

Fan can from ISCI works awsome, i have on my 2012, directs heat under bike rather then on right leg, also lowered temp one barr.
