There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Now that I have them in hand you are correct. This would be the process.
-> Adjust pegs where you would normally ride.
-> Flip up stock peg and move brake pedal all the way up and lock in.
-> Remove stock peg
-> Install new cam over bracket
-> Cam down with tool to be determined
-> Bolt up new floorboard or peg
Like any other Spyder or bike you most likely move it one time and that's it. The floorboard gives you much more room to move your feet so it would be better than a peg for that reason. If you think you're going to move it all the time this is not for you.

Thanks for describing the mounting process and confirming my adjustment concerns. I really like the look and idea of your boards, but we're looking at purchasing a Ryker for my wife that I would also drive occasionally. I'm 6'4" and she's 5'4", so the quick adjustment is a big plus for us.
Can you suggest a larger than stock peg that will allow use of the quick adjust feature?

The stock peg is longer than most. We can add pegs to our adapter but it won't be any longer than stock.

Not looking for longer. Looking for wider(front to back) with perhaps rubber grips.

That we will be able to do. Stay tuned.

Maybe something like a small ping pong paddle shape? Something that would allow it to tilt up and clear the brake lever while being adjusted.

I'd like to get these, but it looks like they are really close to the brake pedal. Does the brake pedal clear them when pressed down?
You might want to give him a while on that one, Ryker900 - he does have other stuff on his plate & I suspect he's not on the boards at the moment. So hang tight, he'll get them out as soon as he can! :thumbup:

No problem. I can wait. It's still too cold here for me to ride anyway. I can't afford heated riding gear.

The floorboard adapters should be heading to the anodizer this week. I hope to have product in the store next week. As far as the break goes it is adjustable.
Took a little spin on it this weekend. https://www.facebook.com/LadyLamonster/videos/10213391890218152/

I see you have a backrest on it in the video, will that be available too? How about a top case with a backrest? I'm 75 years old and bought a Ryker 900 ACE. Haven't been able to ride it much since it's so cold here in Columbus,Ohio. Can't afford the heated gear.

Yes we will have a backrest and it will work with a topcase. I'm waiting on one part to finish that.
