2013 CAN-AM SPYDER RT WITH 793 MILES, DROVE YESTERDAY 10-12-2020 IN THE EVENING, WENT ABOUT 1/2 MILE AND DARK BLACK SMOKE STARTED COMING OUT OF THE DUAL TOP PORTS I BELIEVE ARE AIR INTAKES. STOPPED AS IT WAS THICK SMOKE. RODE IT HOME SMOKING. TEMP RANGE WAS IN NORMAL RANGE. THESE BIKES ON WEB RESEARCH, HAVE A HISTORY OF CATCHING FIRE. PUT AWAY IN GARAGE, CHECKED GAS, BRAKE, OIL LEVELS APPEARED NORMAL BUT I ONLY DROVE A TOTAL OF 1 MILE. CHECKED UNDER ENGINE THE NEXT DAY , NO STAINS ON THE GARAGE FLOOR. I TAKE EXCELLENT CARE OF THE BIKE, SERVICE WISE ALSO AND I ONLY DRIVE IT LOCALLY. I AM NOT RIDING THE BIKE TILL I GET IT TO THE LOCAL DEALER FOR INSPECTION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CAN-AM SPYDER MOTORCYCLE. WHILE RIDING THE MOTORCYCLE IN VERY HOT WEATHER CONDITIONS, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED IN A BRIGHT ORANGE COLOR, WHICH DISTRACTED THE DRIVER. IN ORDER TO REMOVE THE DISPLAY FROM THE SCREEN, THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE TURNED OFF AND THE KEY HAD TO BE REMOVED AND REPLACED. THE CONTACT NOTIFIED THE MANUFACTURER OF THE DEFECT. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40.
