• 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.

RTL rear suspension problem

2014 RTL 16k miles
On a trip from Texas to Alabama. Noticed the air compressor not working and the unit riding very rough. Is this a common problem for this unit and what is usually the problem? Thanks in advance for help.

I have about the same mileage and have the same problem:banghead: I have a appointment this Saturday to see if the compressed gave out or if it is the sensor went bad?
I also get the orange screen stating manual over the shock display when I press the adjustment switch.
 
OK... so I have a 2012 RTL, "Check the fuse" for whatever reason I blow the fuse that controls the compressor relay a couple of times a year. :dontknow:
 
If it's not the fuse you can put air in the air bag under the seat. Also check to see if the link from the ACS sensor is connected to the swingarm on the left side.

just got my 2011 rt limited back today same problem orange manuel on setting bar.Compressor was fried:yikes::banghead::mad:
 
The air compressor on the RT is a cheap POS in my opinion...

MANY MANY people have had them fail...

If your in warranty get it to the dealer and they will replace it.

If your out of warranty and do not want to have this issue anymore, replace the compressor with this!

It's about $100 and almost plug and play!
