This comes from many interweb sources….
Couple of things I caught… only 2 fires cause an investigation (but they have had combustion issues in the past)…. Cam-AM sold 52,000 Spyders!!!….. and there is a police version!
U.S. safety regulators are investigating two reports of fires in Can-Am Spyder three-wheeled motorcycles.
The probe covers about 52,000 motorcycles from the 2008 through 2014 model years.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says in documents posted Friday that the fires appear to be unrelated to three recalls of the motorcycles. One Spyder was destroyed last month in a fire while being used by the Morgantown, West Virginia, Police Department. Another burned in the Mojave Desert region of California.
The safety agency says it will look into what caused the fires. Investigations can lead to recalls.
The Morgantown police, in a July 23 complaint to NHTSA, said an officer was riding the Spyder on a city street and felt heat rising from beneath the motorcycle. The officer saw flames coming from the engine and moved it to the side of the road. “Within seconds the vehicle was fully engulfed and flames caught a yard and two nearby trees on fire,” the complaint said.
The Fire Department and a city mechanic determined that the fuel system was the source of the blaze, the complaint said.
No one was injured in either fire, but the police motorcycle was a total loss.
The three recalls happened in 2012 and 2013, and all involved the risk of fires. Last year, the company recalled about 8,200 Spyders because brake fluid leaks could cause fires. In 2012 it recalled about 34,000 because fuel vapors could leak due to an ill-fitting gas cap. It also recalled 9,600 because fuel vapors could exit a vent hose in the engine compartment.

2014 Harley Davidson FXDL Low Rider
[in your best Scottish accent, aka Mr. Scott from Star Trek] “Cap’n I am given her all I can, but if the engine and frame reach a resonant frequency of 5800 RPMs…the engine could shut down!”
All kidding aside a recall that started in Australia a few weeks ago (and reported on The DawHouse #269) has made it to America. Apparently it is possible that the engine vibration at 5800 RPMs could cause the ignition switch to move to the ACC position shutting down the motor. I am sure we all know what could happen if you were doing 80 MPH in the center of a multi-lane highway, just in front of a Tractor Trailer and the engine clicked off….not a pretty picture!
The NHTSA has issued campaign number 14V413000 that affect 3,361 2014.5 Dynas, built between 1/6/2014 and 6/19/2014, in the US (and based on fact that they were recalled in Australia I assume all 2014.5 Dyna motorcycles are affected).
This recall is self-reported by HD. It first found the problem at the end of March 2014 when a bike turned itself off while on a dynamometer. Further testing determined that this was a true safety issue and they reported the recall to the NHTSA at the beginning of July.
Owners may contact Harley-Davidson customer service at 1-800-258-2464.
