• 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.

    Deer collision - safer on a Spyder? Thoughts? Or first-hand accounts?

    I'm glad we don't get so many Deer hits in England. There are some deer herds around the Nottingham area, which is about 16 miles from where I live. More Deer up in the North of UK in Scotland.

    Disability Plates - Texas only allows 1 plate per Operator! Is the Law the same in your State? What's Your Opinion?

    Here in the UK, we don't get plates that show disability for parking, they just show year and place of first reg. We get a plastic type folder with your photo in it, which can be used on any vehicle you are in or on.

    Disability Plates - Texas only allows 1 plate per Operator! Is the Law the same in your State? What's Your Opinion?

    Here in the UK, we get a Blue Badge. Yes, that's what its called. It covers any vehicle the disabled person is in. You just have to take it with you and place it in the windscreen. I have one, but I don't know how to use it on my Ryker because it would get nicked!

    Does anybody use a GPS Tracking device for monitoring their Spyder's location?

    The DSS Key will stop the bike from starting, if it's not around. But in my case, the DSS key for my Ryker sport was not programmed, so the Ryker could be started with a Magnet!

    Buying a new helmet - who replaces them every 5 years per manufacturers spec??

    $1000 AUS is around £486 in the UK, so that would be considered a medium price helmet. I paid £699 for my Shoei X Pro, but I did buy while I was riding my Triumph RS, which was a fast bike. I think that would be about $1500 AUS

    Will the Ryker drive train clunk reduce after break-in is complete?

    You can't really blip the throttle because it's always in gear, but I find that if I start up, wait till the choke goes in, and then just ease away on the throttle, I get no clunks.

    What are your thoughts on any potential reliability/issues of this 16 year old Spyder?

    I DON'T have a Spyder, I have a Ryker Sport. I've had bikes from when I was 16 and legally allowed to ride here in the UK. I bought my Ryker at the age of 82. I have no problems driving it, apart from my first day on the road when I went looking for a front brake. A lot people say they don't...

    Is there a paper Ryker Shop manual?

    You are right on the headlights. They point to the left on British bikes, and to the right on French roads. I suppose it depends on which side of the road you drive on. Here in the UK, we drive on the left.

    Will the Ryker drive train clunk reduce after break-in is complete?

    I've been looking at this clunk when loading the bike to move, and I find if I open the throttle gently, then I get no clunks, but if I open up hard, I get the clunk.
