• 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.

    I initially thought that as well, but our Slingmods account is under my wife's email which isn't related to my IG or YT. I think I just got lucky maybe?

    Absolutely love them!!!!! They surpassed my expectation of quality in both mounting hardware and the bags themselves. For me, well worth the cost. Now I can finally lock up my helmet when away from the Ryker, as well as bring my drone and all other camera equipment.

    Awesome! Mine are scheduled for a Saturday delivery. You must be darn close to where they shipped from. I'll be installing either late Saturday or on Sunday. Let us know how you like yours. I've had absolutely zero issues with Slingmods. They even refunded me the $100 shipping on the 3...

    Cross Style replacement bars

    Didn't even know these existed. Seems a lot easier solution than fully replacing bars, having to drill holes, remounting things, etc. Do you have any pics of them on your Ryker? Thanks for showing those! Those were what I was looking at getting. Still deciding on what to do. I like the...

    Yep. They should be listed within Order History. Thanks for the response!

    The Ryker trip-report!

    My adventures last year consisted mostly of frequent (every darned weekend) to Estes park, with a few more trips to Guanella Pass and running the Peak to Peak from Estes to Black Hawk. This year, I'm hoping to hit up more of the southern parts of Colorado.

    Cross Style replacement bars

    MDLNB, very nice! Do you have a link to the ones you got? How much further back do they go from the stock handlebars? I was looking at some fully adjustable ones on eBay, but they limit space on the handlebars tremendously. Thanks in advance!

    Well that sucks. I emailed to ask about the promotion and they honored it and refunded me $100. Maybe I got lucky. Sorry it didnt work for you. :(

    Backseat rest for driver on a 2up can am ryker?

    I think you mean Beth at Ryker Rydes? It's the official CanAm backrest, however, not usable with the 2up seat. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9WlnrT5VkSs&t=292s

    Unfortunately, I haven't seen anything that will work with the passenger seat mounted. Only with the max mount without the passenger seat :(

    Nah. Not at all :) Different strokes, different folks.

    Anybody buy Slingmods Ryker 3-bag system? Good or bad? Opinions?

    Agreed. I'm really loving the integrated brake lights as well. I couldn't imagine how much a 3 bag setup with integrated brake lights would cost. Looking at AdMore Lighting LEDs on a Shad SH48 is $150 before shipping. The SH48 itself is almost $250. Everything is a non-proven product upon...

    Ah, ok. I mean, if you are getting them with the expectation of loading them with over 100+ lbs of stuff, I can maybe see that. But given the recommended weight is only 10 lbs per bag/topcase, I'm not seeing the extra 40 - 50 lbs (which includes the weight of the mounting bracket and bags...
