• 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.

    Windshields burning Rykers?

    I am wondering if they installed these and had the plastics touching at an angle while parked. Not all plastics play well together. Some will melt, look like burn marks and distort the plastic. THis was a common issue with PEZ dispensers that were mixed in a box. Also that little band at...

    Did you have to wait long to acquire your new Ryker?

    I don't know about 2022's, but I know last year it took me awhile to track down a dealer with any inventory coming in. They wanted a cash reserve or they would sell the bike. Seller's market last year. I had to drive 2.5 hours away and that was the closest one. That was their last shipment...

    Cannot swing leg over Ryker with luggage on it - any solutions?

    I don't have an artificial leg, so I have no input on that, but I added that same tail bag for the exact same reasons (except for the chicken, but that is a good idea). I like that I can get it to expand. I keep my rain jacket in there, not that I ever want to use it. Does your bag move...

    Any comments or suggestions on B.E.S.T. ?

    I have a little more time until my 1 year warranty runs out, contacted Imotorsports, still 671 for 3 years. My local dealer was saying close to 1k. Looks like they can't be beat.

    After suggestions on Cleaning black body parts?

    wow, some of you spend a heck of a lot more time than me cleaning your bike. I rinse it with a hose and wipe it with a rag. It's going to get dirty as soon as I start it again. I let my nephew ride it in my field last night and it has grass and mud on it. For the guy mixing degreaser and...

    Traffic Light Road Sensor and the Ryker

    I wouldn't trust anyone's opinion without a legal citation. Here in PA you can "ride on red". You have to treat it like a stop sign once it doesn't detect you, then you are good to go. Just make sure you don't break the imaginary plane of the intersection if there is no stop line or crosswalk...

    Well....it broke.

    My question is this: Are they replacing the ECU on their dime, or are they making you pay? Just wondering, my experience with other service departments for tractors and equipment has me feeling that they will be saying that since you attempted to install non factory approved accessories by a...

    Both Headlights are fogging up on the inside - any quick fixes??

    I was wondering if there was an update/if you fixed it? If you caught that winter storm we got hit with I doubt headlights were waht you were fixated on. Nothing like a couple of inches of snowfall in late april to stop riding in it's tracks. I do understand that the people further north than...

    Both Headlights are fogging up on the inside - any quick fixes??

    didn't you say you changed the bulbs? You might not have, I might have you confused with someone else. That stupid rubber boot/seal was a PITA to get snug back on, wonder if there is a gap or it moved. Maybe a hair dryer aimed in there after removing boot, lock nut/plastic ring thing and...

    Is Slingmods Ryker forum not working??

    test, test, one...two...three? Beavis and Butthead reference with Bill Clinton character.

    Need Battery Strap

    Well, you can always do a similar search if you want velcro (don't know why velcro). An inner duty belt is very wide and has good velcro if you are looking for something like that. My tie down for my battery on my trailer, tractor, and zero turn are all nylon. They get bounced about. I use...

    Need Battery Strap

    search amazon for nylon webbing and buckles and have at it. If you are unsure and just want one, search for a nylon belt and buckle. If you buy either, cut to desired size and to keep fraying down melt the end with a lighter (be careful it doesn't drip on you as that will give you an owie). I...

    What was your out the door price

    seems kinda high to me for a 600. I would look used. SOmeone on this forum had a link to someone selling nationally for minimal margins. Let me be clear, that dealer doesn't do much to those bikes out of the crate. I know, I asked people at three dealerships. Unless you are picking those...

    Don’t do too many mods until you ride for awhile?

    Yeah, you are a flatlander (lol). Not being in philly is good, these bikes arent the most secure things in the world to park and walk away from. I don't know where you would ride, I guess you could head north towards the poconos and ride around all the NY/NJ transplants. I just wouldn't head...

    does a turbo sound appealing to you?

    So, instead of insta buying I read a bunch of stuff, read these comments, and talked to a couple of motorheads. Basically, this turbo is mostly at the top end and I don't get to top end speed unless I'm on the interstate. I am mainly hitting curves and accelerating until the next curve. I...

    Don’t do too many mods until you ride for awhile?

    I agree, ride for a bit then make your decision. I read several times to wait until you have like 500 hours. I don't know if I would wait that long if I was uncomfortable riding it. Where are you in PA? If you are in the flat areas it may not matter, but in the western part (mountains) I...

    2022 Ryker with an oil leak - incompatible parts!

    I'm not attacking you. I just wanted to read about a documents proven case regarding oil leaks on rykers. If you are saying that it is document proven on your machine then that is a different story and really doesn't surprise me. It is just that you gave me the impression that this is...

    does a turbo sound appealing to you?

    well, that is good to know. Thought they might be fibbing a little, you know how every manufacturer puts out numbers about their product that never seem to match in real life. Tractors do it with lift capacity, trucks do it with their tow ratings and mpg, bikes seem to do it with their 1/4...

    does a turbo sound appealing to you?

    https://www.silberturbos.com/products/brp-ryker-900-turbo-kit I don't own one, and I don't have any ties to this company, but this looks interesting. The HP increase numbers I am a little skeptical of, but who knows. Anyone on here install one?

    2022 Ryker with an oil leak - incompatible parts!

    can you post a link to this documents proven case? I'm curious if it is only the new models or all models. I'd like to read the data to draw a conclusion.
