• 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 CVT Drive belt flat spotted! Should I ride more aggressively?

    I would think that if you check it at 12'000 miles you might as well put on the New belt while its open.

    Need to take off BRP comfort seat...

    I just pulled my comfort seat off ( gently) before I sold it on CL . I remember one of the eight clips broke but the person buying it didn't care for 1/2 price and you just push it on.

    One hour riding and my butt is killing me.

    https://youtu.be/fmvpwcjD8-s I Love my Ultimate seat and I don't have passengers. Almost 2" higher and that 6" backrest really helps me without having a backrest. You could get a backrest also.

    Service deptartment update

    I would avoid that dealer. The Ryker skid plate has a hole to drain the oil and I widened my hole to make it easier. Because I'm used to extracting oil from Jet Skies I Tried it when my Ryker had only 1000 miles and ONLY 1.5 quarts of 3.5 quarts got extracted So if they are doing this the Rykers...

    How do you know when your tank is low on fuel?

    I fuel my Ryker on the way home about a mile from my house. If my ride was 90 miles I would add 3 gallons and be ready for the next ride and after adding fuel my autonomy would read about 125?

    Got any performance improvement suggestions?

    I got the popular foam Grip Puppies which make the grip wider and you don't move your hand as far. Mine is stock and goes zoom!!!

    How do you know when your tank is low on fuel?

    Best way! I switch to Autonomy after I fill up on the way home a few miles from the house and I normally get 128-130 so I must Not be filling it all the way which is fine with me because All my afternoon rides are about 85-110 miles.

    Thinking of buying a 2021/22 F3

    I have 21,500 on my 2015 F3 and did put the BajaRon links on recently which helps a lot. With the seating of the F3 I never really felt the need for it on hard corners. I had the Bar on my GS and RT for sure! My assisted steering F3 feels touchy after I ride my Ryker because its 2 different...

    Draining Oil vs Sucking up oil .....

    I did that on my 2015 F3 last summer and you can extract 4 quarts of the 5 required IF you do it right after a ride. Then I change the filter and use valvoline 10x40Syntehtic. I didn,t do this the first 3 changes but I only go 3,000 miles a year on the F3 because I also have the Ryker so 4 of 5...

    New owner in Arizona with some questions

    To keep from wearing the CVT belt don't increase the stopped idle speed over 800rpm. I can't rev the throttle like I can with my F3 SM6 manual.

    coming from ryker to RT

    I loved my 2012 RT sm5 in the Twisties because I could see farther around the next corner than my F3 being higher up. I say for that kind of $$$ Test Drive even if you have to travel a few hours.

    Inexpensive brake light flasher with photos

    I have this on mine and there is NO cutting whatsoever. I tap it when people are stopping behind me to wake them up? I often tap my brake on the highway at "certain" times as I see fit for the situation.
