    2023 Can-Am Ryker Rally Review | Road Test

    A great read


    Snip
    "When I tested the original Spyder in 2008, it was a novelty, something futuristic and intriguing to everyone from teenagers and their soccer moms to members of the Peacemakers MC when I rode it to their bikini bike wash fundraiser in Utah. A decade and a half later, the Spyder is all grown up, having become an established, tax-paying member of the powersports community. The Can-Am Ryker, on the other hand, is young and brash, more interested in fun than respectability. And the Rally is the most mischievous one of the bunch".

    A great snip out of the article,

    "Hoon Dog

    With its twist-and-go CVT, peppy engine, Rally mode, wide handlebar, low seat, and feet-forward riding position, the 2023 Can-Am Ryker Rally is what Dr. Frankenstein would get if he stitched together a scooter, a cruiser, a go-kart, and an ATV. That may sound a little weird, but the result is a riding experience like no other."

    Thanks for showing the Ryker article. You folks beat me to the punch there.

    Another interesting article...covers many of the "myths" of motorcycling. The "tire guys" are going to love that one.
