2021 CAN-AM RYKER Vehicle Speed Control Problems

ALL recalls and updates (including the NHTSA steering rebuild kit, and the fender kit) have been performed on this vehicle, yet it has a persistent issue. The vehicle stability system engages with zero warning and at any speed and road condition. This immediately restricts the RPM to 5200 maximum, or approximately 57mph on a flat, 54 on an incline, 60 on a downhill. I have nearly lost my life due to it kicking in: -on the onramp to the highway with 80mph traffic behind me and having to immediately dodge and weave to the shoulder -in a sloping turn and the sudden change in vehicle performance nearly threw me off the bike at 50mph This condition cannot be reset without specialized software and hardware that is cost prohibitive to purchase as a consumer. It has also kicked in -just driving home on a straightaway, at 45mph -after making a legal,...

Tire wobble and stutter on left hand turns. Throws VSS fault code C600c and C60063

I have a 2021 Can Am Ryker Rally. 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 each event I don’t get a fault code. I’ve been living with it as I figured that was just how the Ryker was. However, I had someone following me recently and they witnessed it and commented that something was not normal. So, I called...

BRP's Vehicle Stability System (VSS) engages randomly on left turns, cutting engine power, applying braking, and temporary stalling around curves at normal driving speeds. This situation is a serious driving hazard as may suddenly jerk erratically, causing temporary loss of control of vehicile. This has happened on several occassions, and is a known problem to BRP. Ryker will lose power during a turn, causing vehicles behind to brake to avoid a collision, the bike will jerk and shake erratically, as brakes are being applied, then lunges forward when the VSS system disengages and normal power is restored. I almost got rear-ended by a large truck. This Ryker is NOT safe to drive. Has been taking to the dealer five times to try and fix the problem but so far it persists. Dealer clamis that Can-Am (BRP) has not been very helpful in resovling problem. This is a design or manufacturing...

The contact owns a 2021 Can-Am Ryker Rally Motorcycle. The contact stated that while driving at 35 MPH, the brakes inadvertently engaged, causing the rear-end of the motorcycle to wobble. The vehicle was taken to the dealer. The dealer tightened the front brakes; however, the failure recurred. Upon investigation, the contact related the failure to the speed sensor traction control. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and informed the contact to take the vehicle to a dealer. The failure mileage was approximately 3,000.
