Bombardier Recreational Products (BRP) is recalling 1,407 model year 2020 Can-Am Spyder RT motorcycles.

The support which holds the brake mechanism could break during emergency braking situations, causing a total loss of braking ability.

A loss of braking ability can increase the risk of a crash.

What to do

BRP will notify owners, and dealers will install a reinforcement bracket free of charge.

The recall began April 1, 2020.

Owners may contact BRP customer service at (888) 272-9222. BRP's number for this campaign is Bulletin 2020-5.
