• 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.

    Anyone running 80/100w H4 bulbs in their Ryker?

    What year/model do you have? Your front suspension looks considerably different than the one of my 2022 Ryker Ace 900 Sport. My upper A arms are elliptical in cross-section, so I don't think the brackets that can be ordered with the lights would supply a uniform grip.

    Anyone running 80/100w H4 bulbs in their Ryker?

    The machine is still new to me, and I haven't stripped off enough of the panels yet to see what I can use to mount some brackets. Previous brackets I had made could easily be mounted outside of the body work using existing screws. They worked great, but drop the bike and they could cause a...

    Anyone running 80/100w H4 bulbs in their Ryker?

    If I may ask, how did you mount them? Also, looks like they have changed what's included. The harness and switch appears to be a separate ~$9.00 item that you need to order.

    Anyone running 80/100w H4 bulbs in their Ryker?

    "CHANGE to LED's & ADD even more lights; even better!!" I have a couple of Auxito H4 LED bulbs coming to replace the main lights (used one of them before in another bike), but can you comment (good, bad, ugly) on the aux lights that Hypnotic Concepts has that Swingmods sells for the Ryker...

    Anyone running 80/100w H4 bulbs in their Ryker?

    Good enough for me. The Connie's headlamp construction is a glass semi-Fresnel-type lens and a steel bodied housing. The H4 bulb's steel flange is held into position with a steel spring that puts pressure on the three tabs and keeps them tight against the mount in the bucket. That dissipates...

    Anyone running 80/100w H4 bulbs in their Ryker?

    Curious if anyone has run 80/100w H4 bulbs in their Ryker? I swapped out the 55/60w H4 in my Kawasaki Concours with the higher wattage bulbs to improve night-time illumination and was very happy with change. I did try several of the LED bulbs that were out there, but their patterns and...

    Any compatible part #'s for this Ryker 12v Accessory Connector?

    Know this was an "ancient" post, but many thanks to the both of you. I also just needed the "customer end" pieces (pins and housing), and probably have the crimping tool to handle that part of it, but decided to take the easy way out and just order the assembled harnesses from Slingmods. I'll...

    What is the Actual USB Connector Voltage?

    "Why would BRP indicate the 5vdc in the USB circuit? The 5vdc is implied, no need to show it." My short time with the BRP documentation seems that they do that a lot. It appears that they assume that everyone knows everything about the inner workings of their product, or USB standards, or how...

    What is the Actual USB Connector Voltage?

    My concern was that there isn't anything indicated in the wiring diagram that would drop the 12v down to USB standards. If the glove box's USB connector has that built in like you indicated (probably using a zener diode scheme), that's great. Sure would have been nice if BRP had indicated that...

    What is the Actual USB Connector Voltage?

    No, I'm asking what the actual voltage is at that USB connector. According to the wiring diagram, there is nothing in that switched line to drop the voltage down from 12V to 5V. That same line also feeds a couple of ACC connections, ACC 1 and ACC 2.

    What is the Actual USB Connector Voltage?

    In the glove box section of the Owner’s Manual, it says: “A double USB connector is also located inside the glove box. Each USB plug can charge with current up to 2.1A at 5V.” However, if you look at the wiring diagram, it shows the source of the USB connectors power as coming from a switched...

    Anyone found the Ryker's Alternator Output Specs? Primarily, amps?

    Okay, I sit corrected. Thank you.

    Anyone found the Ryker's Alternator Output Specs? Primarily, amps?

    Has anyone found the specifications for the Ryker’s alternator output, volts and amps, primarily amps? The only number I’ve seen is 30A +/- 5A for some test they’re running in the Manual. I’d like to know this figure so I know how much electrical “stuff” I can hang on the system without...

    My Hazard Light and Other Wiring Install

    One of the things that surprised me with the new-to-me 2022 Ryker Sport I picked up a couple of weeks ago, was the lack of hazard light capability. Back in my working days, my bikes were my preferred source of commuter transportation, so I rode them in all sorts of weather. My ’95 Kawasaki...

    Ryker wiring diagrams - Anyone have access to them?

    I've got the Ryker Manual, but I'm not seeing any wiring diagrams. I've just picked up a 2022. What page(s) are the diagrams supposed to be on? TIA Well, DHOO! I found them.

    Hey Ya'll We Got A New Member! Lets welcome gbyoung2 to SL

    Thank you Picked up a low mileage, loaded 2022 Ryker a week ago because my 205K mile 1995 Kawasaki Concours' bulk was beginning to get a little intimidating. Approaching 81, I just don't have the physical confidence like I used to. Anyway, interested in seeing how the 3-wheel community thinks...
