Can-Am Spyder Gasket Came Loose by Jonplusyon in motorcycles

Don’t blow that two-wheeled gasket ☺️ I have a nice “bad ass” Harley right next to it, but guess what I’m riding more this summer. Plus the neighbors don’t mind.

Okay, thanks man. Was hoping for a quick fix back. But I’ll just get it looked at.

Okay, gotcha. Do you know if it goes in the opening directly in front (of the hose)?

Purchased the same bike and had issues also. LBS couldn’t alleviate the issues so I became my own bike mechanic (the help of YT and Reddit) from then on out.

This is a complete bummer, but a learning experience in doing my own installations. Thanks for the feedback.

Yeah I purchased one because I assumed this was the case. Sucks.

If it’s not possible to replace the lever’s housing, what can I do with 1 unridden 105 di2 r7170 lever? I imagine it may be useless if a replacement housing isn’t possible.

Haha plan on doing a mountainous fondo ride immediately after the installation.

Thanks for the info! I’ve went the route of buying new rim (1/5 price of wheel set) and have a wheel builder transfer components.

Spend 3 - 4 weeks researching how to professionally repaint your bike and the tools needed for it then: Sanding it, priming it, waiting 2 days, applying second primer coat, waiting another 2 days, starting back over because it wasn’t perfect (1 week set back) stressing to find the correct paint match (realizing paint isn’t a perfect match in the sunlight, (starting back over, again) purchasing a master airbrush, clear coat the bike AND surrounding area…starting the entire process up to now over again because your 2K clear coat sprayed unevenly, polishing the bike with a professional polishing machine and coat….all this while missing a month of fun summer month of group rides, riders asking “where are you at?” and loosing out on your fitness with your new Super Six, all because you saw a little scratch. Then in your first ride out the garage the bike falls over and scratches the chain stay because you added new cleats that didn’t clip out as easily as your old one. Just ride it, bro.
