While riding the 2020 Can Am Ryker Rally, going into left turns the Ryker will stutter and shake the right front and rear wheel. Feels as tho it is applying the ABS. This only happens on left turns. No issue (yet) doing right turns. Noticed it not long after i purchased the bike back in 2021.

The bike seems to get shaky or even start to skid while taking turns which causes the bike to pull either towards on coming traffic or guardrails. Somebody is either going to get seriously hurt or possibly die as result of poor design. My bike currently does this when it wants to I have no warning lights on. Please get involved and get this fixed, you'd possibly be saving a life.

I was driving on the interstate at 65 mph. I felt a bump and realized my right front wheel had fallen off and I was riding on the rotor. I applied brake lightly to come to a stop and noticed the only thing holding the rotor on was the brake pads. If I had not applied the brakes, the rotor would have fallen off, the axle would have dug into the pavement and possibly flipped the bike. I was not able to locate the wheel. The bike is at a dealership and have received a quote for repair. My insurance adjuster will look at it in a couple days. I noticed no warning signs, no shaking of the handle bars, no message from the bike prior to the incident.

While driving at speeds around or above 20 mph when turning left the ABS or braking system begins activating causing a very serious hazard. This does not happen at any speeds when turning right. This has been reported by numerous Ryker owners. I have brought it into the shop and they are not able to locate or resolve the issue. This is an extremely dangerous situation as the biker will lose control at high speeds and potential force the driver off road or into another lane. This happens all the time and is constantly happening.
