    Let's see if you can make it look better... paint and wraps just ain't gonna do it.... jmo of course cause for me it needs major body work. The basic frame and power plant is good for what it is so now lets see you work your magic...

    It looks like one of those speeder bikes that was on Return of the Jedi in the forest chase scene.

    Needs some gun barrels sticking out front.

    I think floorboards would be at the top of list. Maybe a bottle holder like for the F3. More options for power outlets access locations. Extra lighting.

    I think this bike alongside Lamonster mods is gonna be a homerun. I can't wait. I want one.

    I am sooooo reminded of the 'ugly' comments back in 07/08, and the lawn mower comments when the F3 was announced.

    I'm looking forward to seeing the Ryker when it reaches our shores - remembering its target market, it will do very well imo.

    I'm curious, at first I was like...huh? And it's been growing on me. I see it as more of a true "toy" item than my F3 for sure.

    You know, after reading the various posts about the Ryker, I have a question. I've looked for the answer, but haven't found it yet. Is the Ryker belt driven? And if so, after all of these years that we have been told not to ride off road, , on stones, gravel, etc., how does that work? Inquiring minds want to know.

    I think for the Ryker demographic, floorboards and drink holders are out, but perhaps rally light bars and off-road armor might sell.

    I don't think the Ryker is envisioned as a touring type machine. More "cruiser" and "commuter" type of accessories are what is called for. JUST IMO--of course.
