    Default 248 Miles Roadtrip!

    Lets start here.

    So i pack all the stuff i needed for my trip, and look outside....RAIN Check the weather and it will rain nonstop all weekend, and Alot .

    The ride.

    Well it rained nonstop on my first 3hour ride, Still the Ryker 900 handeld really well! Drow all kind of roads Snake roads Highway and country side, and all in rain with around +10c.

    Tho it went fine, the 900 can skid out really easy, hade one moment when i rode at 110km/h and was gonna overtake, so gave it abit of gas and instant the rearend started to drift. Nothing major just let of the gas abit again.

    Home journey

    Looked outside, more rain.... check weather apps, says it gonna be 2 hours without rain **** yes! so off i went! the rain was long gone i thought! but then.... from no where. ye, you guessed it. RAAAAAAIN .

    Only problem with this whole ride, you need to stop to stretch those legs...
    My ryker 900 is stock, no upgraded swingarms, and it handled like a dream, even in the rain! 10/10 would do again even with the rain....

    We encountered a lot of rain on our 2000 mile weekend. My wife was happy on her Ryker. I was mildly irritated on my Harley and wished I had three wheels through the heaviest of it..lol

    Ryker is a great touring machine in my opinion.

    248 miles? "Roadtrip"???

    That's just barely warming it up for a coffee run.

    In these conditions, I take a Ryker over a Motorcycle any day. It's just so easy and confidence-inspiring.

    Sound like the Ryker handler it's business on the trip.

    Well done fellow viking!
    I was planning a 550km trip this past weekend but due to rain I used the car instead. Clearly I am not as hardcore as you
