Can-Am Recalls 2008-2009 Spyder Roadster Motorcycles for Steering Defect

Can-Am is recalling certain 2008-2009 Spyder Roadster motorcycles.

A condition may exist where the operator of an involved vehicle may need to exert a force greater than expected to initiate the turning of the steering handlebar off center in order to correct vehicle drift from a straight line path. This higher than expected steering control input torque may cause a steering angle overshoot and an unexpected deviation of the vehicle from the operator's intended path.

9932 units are affected.
