• 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.

2017 RTS Coolant leak - any ideas where it might be coming from?

I have never posted much, just looked. I have a 2017 RTS with 42,000 miles, and this is the first trouble I have had. It is kept in a cool garage and set for about 2 weeks, then when I backed it out, there was a small puddle of coolant on the floor, still plenty in surge tank. It is coming from up high and dropping on the front frame bolts. It is so high I cannot see where it is coming from. Any one have any ideas? Dolittle
 
It may sound funny, but if I was you, I would take the beak off the bike, then you are going to have all kinds of room to work and find that leak. Youtube it, it's not as big of a deal with that bike as it sounds

Ps: when it comes time to lift it off the bike, have a shop stool or a second person to help - it's awkward to handle!
 
Had the same problem on my 2021 RT, problem turned out to be weeping from the weep hole on the water pump. The dealer had to rebuild the waterpump since the lead time on getting one from CanAm was horrendous. Yes a waterpump can leak from the weep hole to equlize the pressure.
