    Default Saw my first Ryker today.

    Sat on a Ryker 900 today at North Country HD. It is tiny. Adjusted handle bars and foot foot pegs and brake lever. Pretty comfortable. Hopefully when the snow is gone i can take one for a test ride. All for now. Bruce

    One of our dealerships in Vermont has the Rykers in, when the snow goes, I'm going to take a "Test ride".

    I was on a Rally in the showroom on Thursday. Tried a bunch of different foot peg and handle bar positions. Loved the options. I also thought it was really small and I loved that too. If this bike has decent power I'll be buying one. I'll test ride once the roads dry up. Dealer has already sold 3 and its only been on the floor a little over a week. I like bare bones feel and I thought the fit and finish was great. Just as good as my RS.

    Yeah, it has decent power -- like a.357 mag!

    Default I too...

    I was disappointed but already knew it was not for me. This 900 was a demo and they had hit a curb and the steering at the bars had come loose had about 4"s play and the bar clamp down had also come loose. Strange they would put it out front in that condition. Still happy with my RS fits me well . Lots of lookers for the ryker and selling well..

    Only been able to take mine on small runs so far, but I love everything about it. Has good acceleration, control, and braking. Definitely a head turner. lol I already know I'll run the wheels off of it this spring.
