• 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.

    First "Long Trip" On My '22 Ryker Sport

    I FINALLY got the chance to take the Ryker over to WV for a loong w/e (Concours Owners Group) bike rally in Marlinton. Loaded down with the full compliment of luggage (bags and top case), and my 2 gal. Rotopax extra gas container, the latter of which wasn’t necessary for this trip. Lowest...

    How many of you carry a laptop and BUDS2 with you on long trips just in case of faults?

    Like myself, many of you have probably had to purchase the BUDS2 diag. kit for one reason or another. Mine was to reset the SAS after installing the steering update kit to eliminate the funky LH turn handling, but the reasons are probably endless. In that regard, how many of you carry a laptop...

    Any Idea What This Hose Connects To?

    Found it after removing the glovebox when trying to figure out my headlight alignment issue. The other end connects to the purge valve. I didn't disconnect it, and there are no clamp marks on it what-so-ever. ????

    Range Anxiety Be Damned - Rotopax installed!

    Coming from two long-distance bikes that have ~7 gal. tanks and get excellent fuel mileage (easy 250+ mile range), the Ryker’s tank size and range made me a little nervous. Looking for a way to add some supplemental fuel should I need it, I found the Rotopax system that had several container...

    What is the Latitude of Ryker Vertical Headlight Range Adjustment?

    Shortly after I picked up my ’22 Sport I changed out the pathetic OEM headlight bulbs with some LED replacements. An improvement in brightness was obvious, but some slight tweaking was necessary for L<->R adjustment, but those were easily brought into into proper positioning as the adjustments...

    Need to know how to use the 529036476 Spacer to set my Ryker's SAS to zero?

    Not there yet, but can someone please enlighten me on how to use the above spacer when setting up the steering to zero out the SAS. BRP's supposed link to the instructions are a crock and send you nowhere. TIA

    Recalled Fuel Pump Number, Same Part Number As One It Replaced

    I thought I could breathe easy after I had my 2022 Sport's pump replaced a few days ago due to the recall. Now, I'm not so sure. In putting my paperwork away, thought I'd take a picture of the new one before installing the tank cover. When comparing the numbers between the two photos, the new...

    Is anyone using one of these Lifts to work on their Ryker?

    This may be an asinine question, but gonna ask it anyway: Is anyone using one of these bike/ATV lifts to put their Ryker in the air? In my case, it’s a 2022 Sport Ace 900 model that has a full-length SE Performance skidpan under it. The capacity of the lift is 1500 lbs.

    Curious if the LH footpeg/frame combination of a Ryker Sport is strong enough to support the weight of a person....

    ..... when getting on the machine? I ask because when I have a large bundle on the rear passenger portion of my Ryker’s Ultimate seat, I have a real problem getting my right leg over the mass when getting on or off the machine. For my tall KLR, I put my LH foot on the LH peg, raise up, then...

    General Safety Recall - is the onus on servicing dealer to notify &/or perform the necessary work?

    If the NHTSA has put out a safety recall notice regarding a particular vehicle brand/model, and that vehicle is taken into selling dealer of that brand of vehicle for unrelated service work, is the onus on that dealer to notify the vehicle’s owner regarding the notice, and/or perform the...

    Does Your Horn Sound Off Without Turing On The Ignition?

    I ask that because mine does. I always assumed that it wouldn’t and never tested it previously to see. I installed (Harbor Freight) air horns on my 2022 Scout and just used the existing horn leads to trigger a separate relay, that in turn powered the compressor for the horns. After installation...

    Relativitry

    This morning, I made a run over to the Hollywood Cemetery in Richmond, VA to check the route we'll be taking tomorrow for the interment of a relative there that passed away recently. While there, figured I'd check on the tombstone I had placed several years ago on the unmarked grave of another...

    Almost Done With The Ryker's Add-ons

    Between yesterday and today, I added several items to my 2022 Ryker Sport, to include: Aluminum “chin” radiator protector, aluminum lower A-frame splash guards, and a slightly taller and wider adjustable windshield. The only thing remaining for this go-around is an aluminum engine/CVT protective...

    Any Skid Pan Recommendations for a 2022 Ryker Sport?

    Can anyone recommend a decent skid pan for the 2022 Ryker Sport that provides adequate protection for the occasional (easy) ride down a gravel, or even a halfway decent forest service road? There seems to be a few of them out there, some aluminum (preferred), some plastic. I don’t want to turn...

    Blue Ridge Pkwy Fall Foliage Video Clip

    Last Friday the foliage on the Blue Ridge Parkway (BRP) in Central Virginia was supposed to be approaching peak, so I took a little run over that way to check it out. I left N. Chesterfield and headed west on Rte. 60 and took it over to where it intersected with the Parkway, roughly 123 miles. I...
