• 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.

    I hate to say it but I like the looks of the bike more without the hand guards - less plastic.

    Following your advice, I've done the same with the same effect. Thank you. Also, could it be that my fuel economy has improved? It seems so.,

    Ryker Seat Survey

    I think I may go a little bit overboard on this topic. I have the comfort seat, air airhawk and sheep skin. I have ridden several 500 plus mile days and I end each day with a smile :)

    What's the Backlash/clunking on deceleration - 2019 900 Ryker?

    BRP has had some issues with the final drive. Apparently the axle may have play in it that often results in final drive oil leak. I had this and had the final drive replaced under warranty. I never thought to try to see if I had any play in my back wheel before having the final drive replaced...

    Rally fuel pump fix done but still have questions?

    I am the guy that fixed it myself. I took out the fuel pump assembly and replaced the fuel pump mechanism within that assembly. While this seemed to fix the problem initially, eventually the fuel pump whine returned. The reason I attempted to fix this myself was that the fuel pump assembly was...

    Coolant Change - how's it done on a Ryker?

    The Ryker does not have a drain plug or hose at the bottom of the radiator. How do you drain the old coolant? Inquiring minds need to know.

    OK, here's an update. I just install my 2nd replacement belt at 23500 miles. My 1st replacement was at 11200 miles if I remember correctly. This time my used belt looked better than my 1st OEM Belt (when replaced) and this second used belt measured 1.5" when removed. This belt was a Gates...
