• 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.

    Have your Rubber gauge buttons failed?!

    Yep, It is a 2019 Rally with 22,000 fun filled miles. Amazingly, both buttons went out on the same day - yesterday. The lower button went out and then a couple of hours later the upper button went out. Everything else about the gauges works fine except that I can not change through the...

    Ryker security on overnight trip

    Here's the best suggestion. Pull in to your parking space and then have your buddy who rides an expensive Harley park right behind you and blocked you in. Works for me every time.

    Rear tire replacement time

    Ok, just got back from about 240 miles on the Dunlop at 25 pounds. Much improved over 35 pounds. No issues at all. Rides just fine. Side benefit: Considerable mileage improvement. Got 180 miles out of one tank w 8 tenths of a gallon left. That's better than a poke in the eye!

    Rear tire replacement time

    OK, I have the new Dunlop installed. Took it out yesterday for spin. I had it aired up to 35 pounds and took it out on the interstate. It seemed to be a little more jerky than oem but it was fairly windy. So the jury is still out. I have dropped the air pressure 28 pounds and will be taking...

    Rear tire replacement time

    You're exactly right. I was not looking at the tread wear indicator but the stabilizer blocks. Thanks so much..

    Rear tire replacement time

    All of my wear bars are flush with the tread but I have 5/32nds of tread left. That's a bit frustrating that, according to the manual, I have to replace my tire with 5/32nds left.

    My Saddlebag Support Options

    To support my soft bags, I went to Lowes and just bought a strip of metal was 2 inches wide and about a yard long. I slipped it through my Max Mount. I then just bent it into position. Keeps my bags off of the swing arm without issue. See picture.

    Rear tire replacement time

    The pullies look just fine. There actually was very little dirt/dust in the CVT casing. I believe BRP was covering their butts when recommending a bell change in only 12000 miles. From the looks of my old belt including wear measurements, I would think it would have gone 20000 miles.

    Rear tire replacement time

    Forgot to mention the belt. At about 11,200 miles, I got the transmission service warning on my screen. Replaced belt myself. Old belt looked quite good. Looked like it could have gone thousands of more miles. And I had one more issue that I didn't mention above that I previously posted on...

    Rear tire replacement time

    Tire update Rear tire is about at 5/32nds. So, as I said, it probably has a couple 1,000 miles yet to go. See photo. I do ride fairly aggressively but I do not do burn outs. (until just recently as I know I'm going to have to replace this tire :)). Front tires look fantastic. I would say...

    Post-ride disinfect

    I usually have to deep clean my seat after every ride because the ryker rally is so thrilling I usually soil myself.

    CVT belt life

    I have about 15000 miles on my Rally. I ran across a bell issue once when riding at interstate speeds with a dirty CVT air filter. I agree with previous post that the CVT puts through a huge amount of air and the CVT filter gets dirty in 1/3 the time that the normal engine air intake filter gets...
