Ryker 12 Inches Shorter-
Ryker Exact Same wheelbase-67"
Ryker Slightly wider .3 inch-
Ryker Ground Clearance .5 Lower 4.5 to 4.0-
Ryker Seat 3 inches lower-
Ryker weight 90HP 616lbs - 899lbs for Base F3 = 283 lbs LESS!!!
I have had the 900 ACE for 4 years in a Spark and they seem Bullet Proof and Very smooth!
Test drive videos to come this week will make up my mind to sell F3 OR Not!
Would love to make $$ on the Trade-:yikes:
Sounds great.
Our new 570 Polaris Ranger UTV is 44 HP and weighs just over 1000 lbs and is a rocket up to its 50 MPH governed max speed.
Can you say,, 30% faster on the quarter mile? Not that I race, but interesting potential.....
Let us know how that works. :roflblack::roflblack:Quote:

BRP stats for both 2019 models published 67" wheelbase- Wheels are farther forward on the Ryker.Quote:

Something tells me that the new Ryker will be an absolute blast on these twisty Smokey Mountain roads. :thumbup:
Looking forward to them Big Time. :clap:
The front hood latch comes off with easy access to fluids, battery- to connect maintainer and heated gloves liners/gloves. I'll bet you can even change the plugs in less than ONE day?:yikes:
I suspect that there won't be deals for awhile and that the value of used Spyders, especially the F3/F3S is going down fast.Quote:

If I was an RV'er, this would be pretty good to tow behind a motor home and take on those little daily excursions. Nothing to travel far on, but good for little trips out to see sights.Quote:

Right now my mind is thinking of a lot of things this bike could be for me that my last spyder wasn't.
must be sitting below the Ryker .. right!Quote:
