• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    Being seen

    Agree with Peter Aawen. I rode to work in Houston traffic for 25 years (2 wheels). Averaged about 4 times a year driving a car. Rode in heat, cold, sun and rain. People thought I was crazy. The way I survived was "driving defensively". The key is EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED ! Expect everyone to...

    87 gas

    As has been said before, gas octane is a personal choice. I have used premium in both my Spyder and Ryker since day one and will continue to.

    Ordered on April 22 but not sure when they started on it due to factory being closed for awhile.

    Classic Solo Saddle

    I should be able to let you know next week. Corbin just shipped out mine this morning, should have it by Monday. I too have the comfort seat now. I have no doubt I will like it as this will be my 5th Corbin saddle. Have one on my current Bolt and Grom and on a previous Moto Guzzi and Suzuki...

    What kind of helmet when you have a high windscreen?

    I wear a full face on all my bikes, have for the last 46 years. I started out with a 3/4 helmet. But while riding in '74 with a group of friends, one of them went down in a corner. He was wearing a full face and slid about 50 ft in some gravel, face down! The only thing he remembered from...

    Ryker owners happy with Kendas?

    I've made my feelings known on here before but will repeat … NO PROBLEMS with the Rally Kendas. 3,670 miles, about 50% on pavement, 50% on dirt. Had for a little over 15 months. Low mileage because most of my trips are in the 25 to 40 mile range. Use the Rally like a dual sport: dirt, mud...

    Better tires

    Sorry *** but "various reasons" is not an answer. What I'm looking for is 'not good in the wet', 'too noisy', not a smooth ride' … just what it is you don't like about them.

    Better tires

    Let me ask a question. What are the OEM Kenda's doing that everyone hates? There have been questions about different tire options since the Ryker was introduced, long before one could have worn out and needed replacing. As far as that goes, I haven't read of anyone wearing one out yet. So is...

    Is the oem drive belt carbon fiber

    Blueknight911, not to criticize but you make quite a few errors in your postings. If you are going to continue viewing just 'New Posts', you need to look at the top of the page and see if you are in the Ryker section before you accidently give some newbie some bad information. Just my opinion.

    Turns off

    I know it's the term used but the Ryker doesn't have a "parking brake". The lever you move locks the transmission and has nothing to do with the brakes.

    Turns off

    After further research, the situation is related to the charging system. If battery voltage falls below 12.5 volts for 2 minutes, the engine increases 1000 rpm. This resets on throttle input. Also, to minimize idle running when vehicle is not in motion, the motor will shutdown by itself after...

    Turns off

    It shuts down after 3 minutes of no activity. Just a little blip of the throttle is all it needs.

    Anybody have to repair a flat tire on the road?

    Agree with Peter, don't want to use fix a flat. I have a Kriega bag mounted onto the max mount of my Rally. Carry a plug kit, small compressor (bought a cheap one at Walmart and removed all the plastic housing to make it small), some extra fuses, an Anti-gravity power supply and a small...

    Ryker passenger seat

    To add to this (locking out the two modes) I believe it also adjusts the VSS to account for the extra weight out over the rear. In other words, for your safety, DO NOT install a passenger seat without the OEM footpegs.

    VSS Fault/Limp Home Mode

    Agree with what Markubis suggested. The Ryker is finicky about it's wiring. The one time I got VSS Fault was after riding several miles in the mud (dirt roads after rain) and it cleared up just by washing the mud off! I assume I had mud caked on one of the sensors.
