• 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.

    2022 Ryker Sport Fuel Tank Cover - How to Remove?

    Yeah, I've seen that. Seeing how floppy/loose her cover was at 3:40 in the video by simply removing just the front push-pin rivets had me over-thinking that something wasn't being shown. Admittedly, I haven't pulled my pins yet, but my cover really hugs the tank itself with virtually no movement...

    2022 Ryker Sport Fuel Tank Cover - How to Remove?

    Appreciate it, but the images on page 74 only show the tank with its locating tabs, and the inside of one frame rail (RH) with its mating tabs for the tank. No picture of the tank cover itself. Page 73 does, with detailed instructions, "Remove the fuel tank cover." Seriously!? I'm just going...

    2022 Ryker Sport Fuel Tank Cover - How to Remove?

    Have searched the Owner and Service Manuals for this machine but see nothing about how to remove the fuel tank cover to access the fuel pump. What am I missing? Any guidance would be most appreciated. TIA

    Any Ryker Dealer Service Recommendations in the Richmond, VA Area?

    Appreciate it. Believe Coleman's is where the PO purchased the one I have now. Now that the snow is gone, will probably run by the local dealer here in Richmond in the next few days to see about setting up an appointment to check on the fuel pump's serial number to see if it needs replaced...

    Any Ryker Dealer Service Recommendations in the Richmond, VA Area?

    They are. Ran by there today. They had 4 new models sitting outside, that they just took delivery of, and one in their showroom sitting beside 3 Spyders. I looked at Spyders a number of years ago when they had a satellite store on my side of town, but they shut it down. Spyders were too pricey...

    Curious if the LH footpeg/frame combination of a Ryker Sport is strong enough to support the weight of a person....

    The extra LH peg arrived from eBay today and is mounted up. Looks brand new and is definitely sturdy enough. Think it's going to work out great.

    Curious if the LH footpeg/frame combination of a Ryker Sport is strong enough to support the weight of a person....

    Thank you, good to know. My Sport has the floor board conversions and they're situated pretty far forward, so would be a pain to keep loosening and sliding the one back and forth. Thought about adding in something further back on the left, but didn't consider an OEM peg. Excellent idea! Thank...

    Curious if the LH footpeg/frame combination of a Ryker Sport is strong enough to support the weight of a person....

    ..... when getting on the machine? I ask because when I have a large bundle on the rear passenger portion of my Ryker’s Ultimate seat, I have a real problem getting my right leg over the mass when getting on or off the machine. For my tall KLR, I put my LH foot on the LH peg, raise up, then...

    Loudest horns ever on a spyder. Yup, I did it again!

    I was wrestling with a spot to put the 2 horns of my $25.00 Harbor Freight air horns, and almost settled on where you placed yours. Re-thinking that they might be a collector of all sorts of debris and water there, I finally mounted them behind the CVT coolant intake duct, facing them down. The...

    My 2022 Ryker keys are interchangeable...

    Thanks Sarah. If the there is only one type of key, and they are the RF type, then they will have to be flashed with a code, which the machine may already possess in memory. If not, then the dealer will have to initiate the code that I assume BRP would provide to get the key and machine talking...

    General Safety Recall - is the onus on servicing dealer to notify &/or perform the necessary work?

    Gawd! - is this a coincidence, or what? Today's mail brought me a recall notice from BRP about a problem with the fuel pump. Can only assume they got me as being the new owner through Virginia's DMV. Gonna make the recall process a whole lot easier with the dealer.

    General Safety Recall - is the onus on servicing dealer to notify &/or perform the necessary work?

    Thanks all. I asked because the fuel pump recall hasn't been performed on the '22 Ryker Sport I picked up a couple of months ago. The PO says she didn't know anything about it, and the bike has been into the selling dealer several times for routine service. Guess I'll get it taken care of at the...

    General Safety Recall - is the onus on servicing dealer to notify &/or perform the necessary work?

    If the NHTSA has put out a safety recall notice regarding a particular vehicle brand/model, and that vehicle is taken into selling dealer of that brand of vehicle for unrelated service work, is the onus on that dealer to notify the vehicle’s owner regarding the notice, and/or perform the...

    My 2022 Ryker keys are interchangeable...

    While out on another run yesterday in basically the same direction as one of the dealers I’d mentioned, I decided to make the full 25 mile jaunt to check on the key question. Initially, the question didn’t register with their service manager, but he persevered in his search through the model’s...

    My 2022 Ryker keys are interchangeable...

    Good info. I don’t have a dealer, but there are a couple in my general area. I’ll run by one or the other after the holidays and see what they say... especially since I’m not the original owner of my '22 Sport.

    Does Your Horn Sound Off Without Turing On The Ignition?

    Several more NO MC honking from ADV: 2020 Suzuki Burgman 400 2021 Kawasaki Versys 650 2024 Honda Goldwing These are all late models, so definitely different requirements. Curious to see how BRP's new EV bike treats the regs. :dontknow:

    Does Your Horn Sound Off Without Turing On The Ignition?

    I asked that same question on the Adventure Rider's Forum, and these are a sampling of bikes that came back whose horns do not work with the ignition is off: No horn with ignition off: 2019 Husqvarna 701E 2007 Vstrom 650 2005 KTM 400 EXC 1974 BMW R90/6 1989 Honda Transalp 1974 Honda CB350 1974...
