• 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 Front Tires - Car Tire?

    I got a small piece of rubber under the fender and it damaged the cable and this (crazy !) clip - the 10A fuse of the complete VSS was blown, the Ryker had a black-out - no chance to find the problem or repair it on the highway - first time (after 60T miles on Spyder/Ryker) we came home on a...

    Ryker Front Tires - Car Tire?

    there is now more space between the tire and the fender (which is better because of the cables inside !!) - they fit without any probles, there are many others using this size .. much better brakes now, more grip in the curves !

    Left Turn Wobble?

    I had this 3 years ago (mine is a 2018) - your dealer has just to calibrate the "steering angle sensor" .. but: if it starts again after a while, he also has to check the fastening of the sensor.. there is now a bulletin about this .. mine is ok now since more than 10 Tmiles ..

    How I've fitted a large touring tank bag onto the Ryker

    When we ordered our Ryker 900 it was clear, that we will use it as a 2up touring machine, which should replace our "old" motorcycles what we used in the last 37 years.. For all our luggage we need around 100 liters (minimum :opps:) for a comfortable 2-weeks holiday-tour ! Its not a question if...

    Is there going to be a Shad saddle bag for LHS of Rykers?

    I use a ALU-plate over the max-mount, which is also for the seat of my girl, so it was easier to fix the top of the shad-brackets .. the SH23 looks more sporty https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bAauOyS6WDk&t=31s
