• 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.

    Show Us Your Ryker Wrap!

    If you've applied a "full body" wrap to your Ryker won't you please post a couple of pictures? I'm thinking about pulling the trigger (DIY) but I'd like to see more actual images of the success others have had. Thanks!

    FYI - Roadside Assitance is 3rd Party provided!

    Thank-you for your reply! It's always good to learn about issues people are having with their Rykers, and yours was most certainly not obvious in your post, as others may have stated.

    Are you looking for a waterproof all-weather outdoor cover or just a dust cover?

    FYI - Roadside Assitance is 3rd Party provided!

    Good to know, thanks, but I'm actually more curious to know why you needed roadside assistance for your Ryker.

    Review: Review of RPS Manufacturing/M2.Shocks on my 2021 Ryker 900

    At $1,745.00 a set, these just made the top of the "Mods I Can Never Afford" list. I wonder if this is still true:

    Newbie, buying question - wait until 2022 models drop, or...?

    Chip shortages, transportation problems, metal mill products shortages, foam shortages, labor shortages, covid this, covid that. A perfect storm.

    Ryker Rear Wheel Camber??

    I wonder if it could be to compensate for torque. Could the designers have had that much foresight?

    Poorly designed OEM Tank bag! Anyone else?

    The Big Bikes Parts (Hopnel) bag has it's issues, too. I have not been able to remove it without removing the adhesive strips, and my iPhone 7+ barely fits in it. https://www.slingmods.com/canam-ryker-tank-storage-pouch-hopnel?vehicle=4

    excessive vibration in handlebars or is it me?

    It's pretty much all been covered...when looking at gloves, gel pads in the palms are a big plus in my book.

    Ryker Rear Wheel Camber??

    Tire pressures are good...front tire pressures are as equal as I can detect. Shocks not adjustable. I measured the height from the floor on corresponding points on the lower A-arms and they are within about 1/16" of each other. On the other hand, the 3/8" dimension I cite is not reliable as...

    Ryker Rear Wheel Camber??

    I just noticed that the rear wheel on my Ryker is not perpendicular to a level surface. I noticed it yesterday when approaching the ride from the rear end straight on from a distance of about 30 feet. I took it home and pulled it into the garage (flat, level floor). I used a framing square to...

    What Did You Do To Your RYKER Today?

    Grip Puppies! I love the way they feel. The stock grips for me are just too small.

    What Did You Do To Your RYKER Today?

    Exactly! In fact in my case I found that casting defects known as fins (and/or "Flash") on the cast metal bulb receptacle (locking ring?) were interfering with installing the bulb. A dremel tool with a small diameter deburring bit fixed it right up.

    What do I need to do in Caring for matte/satin Paint?!

    You will likely get a myriad of answers (I emphasize the fact that you ask "to clean" as opposed to preserve/protect). According to the 2021 operator's guide, "Hand-wash with a soft wash mitt and a mild cleaning product safe for matte paint." (p. 119). I personally have been using Meguiar's...

    Newbie, buying question - wait until 2022 models drop, or...?

    I called them in March and April when I was shopping for a Ryker, not since.
