• 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.

    Ryker 2020 model

    Personally, i thought the paint bikes were incomplete. Just my preference but i want the whole body painted or color wrapped and not just some panels. I also don't like the idea of a open rear fender. Cleanup after a rainy ride would be time consuming. Just my opinion, OK!

    Will a windshield help?

    I took a different approach for a windscreen for my 900 ryker. Yes, i did not like the wind buffering i was getting with no windshield. So i had a windscreen on my honda shadow 750 bike that i took the windshield off to use in on my ryker. It fits the handlebars on the ryker by using some...

    why make the log-in complicated

    Well, i use the latest version of firefox. There are 2 forums that make me click multiple times, all others work with one click. Perhaps it is the VPN i use that causes the long sign-in on the 2 forums.

    Picked up my Rally today.......question

    I noticed that effect on my ryker when it was new. As i put more miles on mine the effect has seemed to go away. It still happens once in a while now, when i am coasting down a slight hill and the road levers out. Just a little clunk here and there. Actually when i am slowing down in traffic i...

    Social Securty questions

    One thing i did when i retired at 66, 3 years ago, was to enroll in a humana gold plus plan to handle my medicare. For some people humana doesn't work but in my case it does. My medicare expenses are about $19 my cost, and humana pays for the rest($110). When i add in the other benefits of...

    why make the log-in complicated

    No biggy, but just wondering why the login takes so many steps. I say this simply because i am the Admin for reverse trikes forum. On our forum you only have to type in 2 or 3 letters of your forum name to get to the main page. No retyping your name, then your password, then clicking the go...

    Rykers Require 87 Octane - Not 92!

    I think its funny that my 18 year old honda lawn mower was always hard starting and has some combustion misses while running on the alcohol/gas mix gasoline. Then i heard that if you mixed some water into the gasoline in a liter bottle, then shook it up and let it set until the gas became clear...

    Miles to empty accuracy

    I am just a daily(when possible) 900 Ryker rider that loves the fast curvy country lane roads. I'm not into 75-90 mph blasts down the interstates. So in 10 tanks of gas i am averaging 36 MPG. One trip with some sport bikes got me down to 32 MPG because i was at maxed throttle most of the time...

    Cam Am admits their fuel gauge is crap!

    I agree with RykerUSA. I know that i have about 75 miles when the gas gauge starts dropping and it drops pretty quickly. After my second fill-up i started using the trip mileage to check if i need gas. I reset #1 trip mileage every fill-up. So far i usually go about 150 miles per fill-up and the...

    Ryker No netural selection ?

    Funny thing is i tried doing the shift between forward and neutral and it doesn't work for me. One of 2 things has happened to me. The first was that the motor does a on/off short rev thing but doesn't move. this does not last for more than a few seconds. The second thing that happens is the...

    My Ryker low fuel indicator is puzzling

    The can-am ryker gas gauge does Not start showing any level until the gas tank is half empty. My ryker it did not start dropping untili had 75 miles on the trike. At 150 miles i got the low fuel warning light. The first time when it started to move i stopped in a gas station and filled up. I put...

    new windshield for the ryker

    Just for the heck of it i tried putting my old honda shadow 750 windshield on my ryker. I was trying to sell it for $50 with no takers. Well, it seems to fit pretty good. I used the included honda mounts but had to make some aluminum adapters for the handlebar mounts. Made these from a old...

    Tools needed for Ryker wheel change

    Any socket with the rounded tips may not work on the Ryker. I bought this socket for $44 with shipping included. Notice the squared tips to the teeth in the socket. The rounded tips may work but i thing this one fits better. just my opinion.

    RYKER 600cc vs 900cc TOP speed and acceleration

    Had my Ryker up to 97MPH on a empty stretch of I-75 in central florida. Too much wind was blowing me around badly so i stopped trying for more(felt like it was near done anyway). Until i get a windshield i think i'll keep it at 55 to 65 for now. Very comfortable there.
