Where are the Rykers?

[Winnex3]

No real evidence there in dealership yet

I'm not surprised.
I was hoping to find them at the NY Motorcycle show.
BRP didn't even have a presence at the show.

Houston,Texas Mancuso Power Sports 4 dealers got there's 2 each per Dealer. Saturday 12.08.2018

I know Central Florida Powersports has a demo Ryker, 600cc version. And BRP/Can Am is sending a few “Display” Rykers around the country. I believe certain dealers will have them for 1-2 weeks, then onto the next dealer. I know there’s one in the North East, just waiting on Dealer to contact me regarding specific dates it will be on display. But it’s happening very soon, I’ll post pics. The more I look into the Ryker the more I love it. I think this will be a home run for Can Am.

I agree 100%, tons of people were shocked they weren’t at the NYC Show. Even if they just had a small display w Ryker and maybe one Spyder. That would of been nice. But I’ve heard Can Am had great success w sponsoring the basic 3W class in 2018, it was discounted to $75, then was $125. They are going to continue that promotion through 2019 (for $99) so they are using their marketing budget on that program instead of doing many shows. Haven’t confirmed that but it’s just what I’ve heard.

Looks like they are arriving in the warmer areas from posts here. Seems logical but then we all know about logic. Most don't want to start paying for something they don't have and many are impulse buyers that if they test them they will ryde them home...keep watching as member let us know where.....:thumbup:

[Little Blue]

Local Dealer said his best guess would be sometime in January 2019. :thumbup:

Care to share your ideas / opinions on why this will be a homerun?

Care to share your ideas / opinions on why this will be a homerun?

Dont know about home run but should help many that couldn't reasonably afford a spyder before. & anyone looking for a budget friendly commuter other than a scooter, the rally just an added plus option.

Care to share your ideas / opinions on why this will be a homerun?

I think it will be a home run for the following reasons:
Price. Customization. Ease of use. Safety. Options.

Fun factor- every video I watch of people riding, they are laughing (or clearly happy) and surprised at how the Ryker handles. Just looks like a fun machine to take for a ride.

New type of machine - it’s kind of like a Spyder, but I feel it’s in a class of its own. Low to the ground, able to fishtail, no worry about gravel/sand (no belt), easy to adjust handlebar/foot pegs on the fly. Larger tires, ride on & off road etc.
Almost every Spyder I see is different, we all add our own personalities to our Spyders. And we love doing that. The Ryker takes it to the next level by being able to change the entire look in minutes by changing out panels.

I feel it will attract some younger people who want to ride,may not know how to ride a motorcycle (u can buy for $8k-$10k) but can’t afford a $20k-$30k Spyder. So they can buy a $8k-$10k Ryker, get on and go. And the 3W is just safer than 2.

I’m sure Ryker will evolve over the next few years but I feel Can Am will sell many in 2019. I have a few members of my RC who took the 3W course in August, but after seeing the Ryker they decided not to buy a 2017 F3 but to wait and buy Ryker. We all know if we buy a 2019 Spyder in the beginning of the year we’d pay top dollar vs waiting till the Can Am rebates kick in during the summer. But for the Ryker starting price of $8,500, I wouldn’t wait for rebates, I’d buy ASAP.

Personally, I’d never give up my RT to buy a Ryker but for $11k ... I may just buy a Rally to have a fun little machine I can ride when I wanna go for a solo ride. I just don’t see the Ryker being a flop. IMO.

I stopped at the dealer this weekend to buy snowmobile accessories. Place was packed! Asked about the Rykers he had previously said were coming in December. He showed me the latest update from BRP. The original plan was to have 1 shipment (2 Rykers) to all dealers before Christmas. That has now changed. New plan is now to have one shipment to all dealers by the end of January 2019. Looks like they are behind schedule.

Saw on Facebook. Coyote Powersports in Boerne, Texas got a couple in last week.

[Highwayman2013]

Can Am Kenny was riding one at Central Florida Powersports on Saturday. Had pictures on facebook of one to be delivered with the rear seat, windshield and saddle bag on it.

Did you stop at Roadside Marine in Vermont?

I still think this needs dual saddlebags. Looks lop-sided with only one.


I know, I know....aftermarket will solve that problem. :pray:

Smith Marine in Doylestown had 2 this past Thu-Sat...both 900's, one was Rally. I Have to say they looked much nicer in person than in the launch photos! They were only "for show" but the awesome rep, Lori, let my DW ride one out to the trailer! Mind you, DW only took the 3w class and got licensed in October and has only ridden once since then, with me on pillion Oh, and I got a couple turns around the parking lot. CVT was impressive

[bscrive]

My dealer has a Rally Edition on his showroom floor. Sat on it and didn't like it. But, there were a few guys in their 20's that were really interested in it. My dealer said that he has sold quite a few of them since he got it in.

I look at these here - they are not so high so maybe one can be installed over the shaft-drive ?

Wilmar MN next week. :)

[Highwayman2013]

ProShop Motorsports in Henderson NV got some in.

[tibadoe]

Local dealer has two being delivered on Monday. Plan on stopping by to check them out.

[old Timer]

There are two on the floor at the Chattanooga, Tn dealer.

Island Powersports on Long Island (Massapequa NY) has a demo Ryker in the showroom and one crate (2 units) on way to dealer. Earlier in this thread I wrote that I felt Ryker would be a home run for Can Am. After riding it yesterday, I’m 100% convinced it’s a total home run! My 39 year old cousin is putting a deposit down this week, he’s extremely excited.

[JP58]

Engelhardt in Madison WI. Just got 2 in. Very well thought out machine. Adjustable steering and foot pegs. One lever to go forward slide back for reverse. Tire change will be a breeze. One big special nut. Mechanical handbrake. Only drawback no storage at all. But I'm sure that will be an added accessory. I did notice the Rally addition has storage for phone ect.

[nchangin]

Mechanical handbrake An affordable hand brake solution is in the future?

I should have said mechanical parking brake.

I just got an update from my dealer Island Powersports. They have 2 900ACE and 2 Ryker Rally on the truck, headed to dealership. I thought Rally’s weren’t gonna be in stock till end of January. This is a nice surprise from Can Am!
We all know BajaRon takes delivery tomorrow and someone I know just let me know his friend has his Rally.
Has anyone else seen Rally in dealerships or took delivery yet?

[Sarge707]

If there in Long Island CT will be on their way back to Canada!! Gotta talk the dealer into taking the trade-in now if they come in!

[farmer54]

Just got a call from the dealer in Findlay ohio he has 6 on the truck, 2 of each model, coming his way. He hopes to see them still this week of course he's closed next mon.-tues. but I hope to be there on wed. 12-26-18 to look at them. I just need a 600 ace so interested in testing a small one. farmer54(Frank)

[Winnex3]

mean while back at the ranch i mean Michigan none have come this way :banghead:

[gg194]

Finally saw one yesterday at Sky Powersports in Lakeland, Fl. He said they have two 600's, two 900's and two Rally's. Only had one 900 assembled. I liked it better than I like the pictures. Did sit on it and liked it, seemed a little larger than I thought but I'm not a tall person.

[PW2013STL]

Checking on line with my dealership and I see that they show having 12 in stock. Looks like a mix of 600, 900 , and rally's. Largest qty being the Rally model.

[rocinante54]

Went to the CanAm dealer in Roseville, CA yesterday. They expect a couple of 600s in the next week or two, but apparently the 900s are having some issues with CARB certification...not expected until February or so.

[Tslepebull]

Broadway Powersports in Tyler has two 900's on the floor and two more still in the crate. I was able to give one of them the static "hiney test" yesterday and was very pleased. They will have at least two Rally models in stock in January and will be offering test rides. If all goes as planned a Rally in Shock yellow will replace my dear departed R1200GS.

[tibadoe]

Virgil Naff's in Lynchburg, VA has 4 of the Rykers still in crate.
