On sweeping left turns the rear tire shudders and skips across the road. Dealership reset YAW rate sensor and adjusted front steering rack. This corrected the issue for a day. The online forums for Can Am Rykers show numerous complaints about this specific issue but dealerships and Can Am state there is no issue and don't have a long term correction for the issue. It seems that the YAW rate sensor is triggered due to loose front end steering components. The technical service bulletin provided to dealers is Ryker YAW rate -SAS Sensor Faults 1…

When taking left turns either at slow or highway speeds, the left front brake grabs as though the abs is kicking on, making it hard to steer and potentially losing control. The dealer says they were not able to duplicate the problem. My wife's 2020 Ryker Rally does the same thing. The dealer says the same thing about hers, no issue.

Emerging complaint spikes

Complete months in the latest six months with at least 10 complaints, at least twice the preceding 12-month average, and at least three square-root deviations above that average.

This is a descriptive screening rule, not a statistical defect finding. Publicity and reporting changes can increase submissions.

No complete months meet the spike thresholds for this selection.

Equal-age model-year comparison

Model-wide cumulative reports during the first three or five calendar years, starting with the model year (age 0). Only fully elapsed windows are compared.

At approximately 3,000 miles I noted that when in a left turn the rear tire beings to wobble back and forth. During this time the throttle becomes unresponsive and reduces power. Example, I can be in a gradual left turn going 40 PMH and when the wobble begins, it will drop the speed to around 25 MPH. When I come out of the turn, power returns and the bike return to normal. During this transition, you have to be ready for this as it can be very unexpected as you are fighting the handlebars to go left. During eac… Look up ODI 11488776 at NHTSA ↗	0	0	—	0	0

The online forums for Can Am Rykers show numerous complaints about this specific issue but dealerships and Can Am state there is no issue and don't have a long term correction for the issue. It seems that the YAW rate sensor is triggered due to loose front end steering components.

The contact owns a 2021 Can-Am Ryker. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed with the brake pedal depressed all the way to the floorboard, the vehicle failed to come to a complete stop. After adding extreme force on the brake pedal the vehicle stopped as intended. After restarting the vehicle, the vehicle seemed to return to normal functionality; however, the failure recurred. As a result of the failure, the vehicle collided with a parking barrier, causing damage to the undercarriage. No warning lights were illuminated. T…

ODI 11611323

When making left turns, the Ryker suddenly would ‘skip’ on the right hand side, as though it was lagging behind any time above about 35mph. This caused a safety concern because to keep with the speed of the road, the Ryker would begin to slip out of a turn and be unstable. No warning lights, brought to mechanic and they stated this was a common problem, enough that BRP has issued a service bulletin and they saw five with this problem in two weeks.
