• 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.

Can-am Ryker Brake and turning left issues - Help?

About 2 months after getting my Ryker I noticed while breaking at any left turn angle of attack at speeds of around 25-45mph +. My break peddle would vibrate violently to the point it felt like it would fall off, many trips to a dealer that changed a few settings fixed it about 90% but it still happens once in awhile but now I have a whole different issue. when I make a left turn on a twisty road the bike starts pulling to the right as if the right tire or break was doing something its not suppose to. Not sure if its a break issue or wheel issue. its a strong pull when I looked I didn't see anything obstructing the right wheel.

The ONLY place that I have had this happen a few times is on HWY 395, California. The 1st 7miles of walker canyon heading south out of walker. it nearly put me into the side of the mountain at 35-45mph. on my way back thru the canyon is had done it again almost sending me into a road barrier and into a river.

I don't ride much any more and stoped all upgrades to it. I manly ride to work sometimes, mostly straight road to work and then to do some small shopping.

I have tried to tell the mechanics at the BRP dealer ship what's happing but in all the test drive they do they could never find the issue or feel it on both items I have listed here. :sour:

A similar " BRAKE " situation was reported recently .... Jack up the front wheels off the ground ( as little as possible - then support them under the " A " arms ) with the motor running try and spin the wheels by hand to see if the left side is dragging .... you or somerone should apply the brakes and see if it changes. ... there are lots of possibility as to why this is occurring .... good luck ... Mike :thumbup: ....PS :welcome:
 
Your problem, sounds like a bent rotor, or a sticking brake caliper, try the solution Mike gave, see if there's any drag on the wheels during braking (let the motor run)
Then check for play in the front wheels, not likely, seen the mileage, but it could be a wheelbearing, as it occurs during a left turn, under attack speed, I don't know how the ryker front a arms are constructed, but if thet are out alligment, then this could also be an issue, but then it would occur in any turn, not just left, there are numerous things that could be wrong, just start with the brakes.
would love to hear, what your findings are

Not riding much, is not a good thing, it's time to get your problem sorted, so that you can fully enjoy your machine
