• 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.

    Which rear shock to buy for Ryker rally?

    It seems to bottom out in the rear - the frame for the top case has hit the fender - not very often but with low amplitude bumps. So I maxed out the preload. It has improved but still bottomed out once or twice

    Which rear shock to buy for Ryker rally?

    I just installed slingmods 3-piece luggage system on the rally. It is fantastic! But we bottomed our a few times with the KYB shock - I adjusted preload to maximum and also the red dial for dampening is set to 4. I am thinking of replacing the shock - any recommendations?

    Anybody buy Slingmods Ryker 3-bag system? Good or bad? Opinions?

    Yes but I thought the bags were heavy THEN I had to add the additional hardware - anyway it’s all done....if anyone is doing this I would adjust preload on the rear suspension . The saddle bag system is pretty awesome and the lights sync with the brakes and turn signals.

    Anybody buy Slingmods Ryker 3-bag system? Good or bad? Opinions?

    I received mine today. The build seems very high quality. The 2 saddlebags are quite heavy and I’m concerned with 2-up riding if the rally suspension can handle it. I will have to set the suspension setting to max probably. But I’m not sure if preload setting needs to be done in the rally...

    Longest ride on your Ryker?

    The farthest I have gone is about 260 miles round trip. I’m thinking I should have asked how much time Spent on a ride bs distance. That ride took 4 hours one way with my wife because we took mainly back roads instead of highway. The ride was relatively comfortable with the comfort drivers...

    Anybody buy Slingmods Ryker 3-bag system? Good or bad? Opinions?

    definitely looking forward to this setup. My wife and I ride 2-up and so far we have just carried a backpack and used the frunk for overnight. That alone is doable, but not desirable. I can imaging the 3-piece set up MUST be an improvement. Granted, this is NOT an RT. I would want to pack...

    Ryker Hot CVT Belt

    Yeah I have that smell too from day 1. Worse in the rain. No leaks, no overheating or anything. May be just the way it is with the Ryker but I will also keep tabs on it and let ya know. Haven’t had it that long but I took it out yesterday for a quick ride no problems so far

    Longest ride on your Ryker?

    Just curious... what’s the longest ride/trip you have taken on your Ryker? Currently I’ve only done around 60 miles round trip.

    Review: New YEAR 2019 Ride Plan?

    Well I’m a bit late to the party - finally purchased a Ryker Rally and did a few rides 2- up with my wife. Certainly we would be up for some

    What to look for in a used spyder?

    I’m looking at purchasing a spyder within next 6 months or so. I’ve also considered a ryker but mainly due to cost. I like the F3 and RT. I’m planning on mostly doing day trips and occasional overnight. But newer F3’s and RT’s are out of my budget. Looking more in the sub-$13-$14000 range...

    top case with passenger seat/back rest?

    Hi all, I just passed my 3 wrc and excited to eventually purchase either a Ryker or Spyder. I rode the Ryker for the course and test, and I was impressed with its handling and stability. I was wondering about a top case and passenger seat with backrest - is it possible add this? I'm looking...

    How safe?

    Thanks for all the posts. Well I finally went and passed the 3-wrc this past weekend....yay!!!!! I have to say it was more work than I thought it was going to be....was rainy, cold, but fun. Most of all though, I learned the basics of operating a spyder safely. Next step will be to go and...

    How safe?

    First thanks for all the replies to a previous post. I seriously have the bug to purchase a spyder and will be taking the 3-wrc. Every once in awhile I think about “how risky is riding a Spyder?” While inherently there seems to be more risk than driving in a cage, but then I wonder if...

    Newbie ?which Spyder?

    Hi all, Well I signed up for the 3-wheel riding course which takes place in a few weeks. My wife and I are considering a Spyder to enjoy rides in the country. I had a question as to what may suit us best. I’ll drive solo much of the time commuting to work only 20 miles away. But we would...
