• 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.

    2020 vs 2021 Ryker 900 (Rally) big performance downgrade on the 2021? With video...

    Wondering if the weights you mentioned are similar to the old skool mechanical advance units used on contact point ignitions? Higher RPMs on those would advance the ignition timing ... not sure what exactly their purpose would be on taming the shifts on a CVT though ...

    K& N filters

    Main benefits are improved air flow AND they're less bothered by high humidity. Wet paper filters are next best thing to useless. DO pick up a K&N maintenance kit while you're at it. Cleaner and oil, and frequency can be adjusted to match your area and driving habits. I spray mine fairly wet...

    Got my new Ryker - didn't even make it a mile

    Keep in mind the braking system on these things is quite complex and fully integrated with the drive train. I imagine it can be pretty confusing for the "brain" if it's getting an active steady braking signal while it's trying to correct for "driver input error" ... A nice way of saying you...

    European Ryker

    Not sure if I'd worry much about lighting, but worth checking I suppose. Factories aren't even aware of some of the differences between US and EU ... my transit connect van came with the EU rear fog lamps, and those are illegal here ... ;-} Be interesting to see if anyone's figured out whether...

    Want Yellow accent panels - where can I get the paint?

    Anybody try PlastiDip spray? I've seen some pretty decent paint jobs using the stuff. It's durable, yet can be peeled off if you decide to go another route.

    Got my new Ryker - didn't even make it a mile

    Little old skool trick on the bars - get comfy in the saddle, close your eyes, and reach out to where your hands think the grips should be. Adjust the bars accordingly. Sounds screwy, but it works.

    Windshields Adventure vs Sport

    I've got another one of these looking for a new home. Maybe with a few mods 'n hacks ... I think it's got a look that will fit the rest of the bodywork.

    Anyone installed the 2-up spring on their Ryker?

    Wonder if Progressive Springs has any plans for the Ryker - I swear by them for improving ride and handling on fork suspensions ...

    Floorboards - any experience with A/mkt boards for Rykers?

    Seems like a good thread to ask if anyone would know if you can run two sets of stock pegs on each rail? Seems to me it would be perfect if you could get them to adjust properly to cradle your heel and toe comfortably ... (Love to hear if anyone's actually tried it)

    Factory Air box Mod

    So, anybody come up with a handy dandy tweaking tool for the brain on these things? Is there an app for that? And is bricking your computer covered in warranty? <G>

    Got decal for my helmet

    Somebody should thank me for my misplaced loyalty, eh ... ;-}

    Need to take off BRP comfort seat...

    Seems to me I saw a video where the guy just felt around under the seat for each clip, then put both hands in and lifted - popped right out. He was reinstalling the stock seat, and also did a neat trick with gorilla tape, using that to pinch the soft wings together while leaving a long enough...

    Sway bar end links

    Has the stock sway bar improved over time? Gotta figure CanAm is listening to the many complaints ...

    LED Auxiliary Lights

    Ever consider adding a headlight modulator? Simple plug and play on most bikes. Just make sure you get one for dual LED headlights. Also a fan of the "backoff" brake light flashers. ** Legal in all 50 states and Canada.

    Sway bar end links

    Surprised anyone would install the bar without also replacing the links? Or at least suggesting it? Be interesting to see a pic of what you've got ...

    Will the upper rear fender work with the Slingmods trunk on the rally

    Wondering if whoever installed the mount used LocTite, and how well you cleaned the threads before stripping it? Anti seize compounds can be just as bad. Especially important for a closed bolt hole that doesn't go all the way thru as the crap's got nowhere to go and just gets shoved to the...

    Ryker Battery Strap - how do I get it back on?!?

    There ya go ... my local hardware carries different lengths and widths of velcro straps that will adjust to any size. Or there's always Amazon ...

    Thinking on getting Corbin seat - your opinion? Lead times?

    Stock seat is surprisingly comfortable, but plan here is to go with the comfort solo for the length. Tall guy and the legs are a bit cramped.

    Plastic trim under seat - how does it mount??

    Previous owner probably removed them to install the max mount? Those trim pieces have to go when that happens. Trick is apparently snapping the pieces together prior to installation. Skip ahead to around 13:40 for mounting details ...
