• 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.

    Your thoughts on F3 maintenance, costs, and reliability vs Ryker?

    I currently own a 2019 Ryker Rally and while I have had no issues with the machine and love riding it - I am thinking about trading it in for an F3 Limited. I absolutely love the Ryker on the back roads but not so much on highways, though it will do highways. And my wife rides with me often...

    suspension coil spacers for Ryker?

    I ride 2-up a lot. I place Elka stage 4 in the rear so I would not bottom out. Much of the time Im ok, but still have been bottoming out here and there. I adjusted preload as much as I could and I REALLY REALLY REALLY do not want to take off the suspension to replace or add any spacers. I...

    How to tow a Ryker?

    I’m wondering what I would need to tow the Ryker. I don’t have a big truck - a Jeep Renegade - only 4 cylinder engine but 2000 lb towing capacity. I don't have a receiver hookup and am not really sure where to start, or if it’s even feasible with that car. And then what sort of trailer? I’m...

    Luggage space on 2012 RT?

    Hi all, My wife and I are renting a 2012 spyder RT in Arizona in a few weeks and wanna know how to pack. The issue is we are going right from the airport to get the Spyder - so we know a suitcase won’t work. We are also bringing our own helmets. I was thinking of 2 small backpacks fir the...

    The Killing Zone

    I’m going to bring up a touchy subject but important one... I see lots of videos of people on their Rykers cutting corners on blind turns, riding too close without a space cushion or riding next to other vehicles on multi-lane highways . I’m guilty of these as well from time to time if I let my...

    Fuel Pump issue on Ryker

    Hi guys. I’ve noticed my fuel pump makes a high pitched whining noise at half tank or less and if it’s hot out after riding for awhile. It is not the cooling fan as that is a different pitch and I know when that comes on. I’ve heard some say it’s a known issue on some models but I have not...

    Which rear shock to buy for Ryker rally?

    I just installed slingmods 3-piece luggage system on the rally. It is fantastic! But we bottomed our a few times with the KYB shock - I adjusted preload to maximum and also the red dial for dampening is set to 4. I am thinking of replacing the shock - any recommendations?

    What to look for in a used spyder?

    I’m looking at purchasing a spyder within next 6 months or so. I’ve also considered a ryker but mainly due to cost. I like the F3 and RT. I’m planning on mostly doing day trips and occasional overnight. But newer F3’s and RT’s are out of my budget. Looking more in the sub-$13-$14000 range...

    top case with passenger seat/back rest?

    Hi all, I just passed my 3 wrc and excited to eventually purchase either a Ryker or Spyder. I rode the Ryker for the course and test, and I was impressed with its handling and stability. I was wondering about a top case and passenger seat with backrest - is it possible add this? I'm looking...

    How safe?

    First thanks for all the replies to a previous post. I seriously have the bug to purchase a spyder and will be taking the 3-wrc. Every once in awhile I think about “how risky is riding a Spyder?” While inherently there seems to be more risk than driving in a cage, but then I wonder if...

    Newbie ?which Spyder?

    Hi all, Well I signed up for the 3-wheel riding course which takes place in a few weeks. My wife and I are considering a Spyder to enjoy rides in the country. I had a question as to what may suit us best. I’ll drive solo much of the time commuting to work only 20 miles away. But we would...
