    The article is only for subscribers I guess. Or to get you to buy the magazine.

    Anyway, it pretty much rehashes the general specs and opinions already discussed on this forum. Targeted towards "Millennials" and cost conscious buyers etc.

    Sounds like the generic "blah blah blah" story to introduce people to the Ryker.

    I much prefer the videos of motorcycle riders taking the Ryker for a test spin and listening to them giggle and laugh with joy. :-D

    I subscribe to Road Runner. It is the best mag. for information about motorcycle touring that I have found. The Ryker article is favorable but is simply a clone of all the other hyperboil everyone else has written. Nothing bad (and that's good) but same ol' same ol'..... Jim
