• 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.

    Review: The Can-Am Ryker... A Great Ride!

    We now have over 36,000 miles on our 2018 Ryker 900 – it still runs perfectly, but we had to make some modifications to turn it into a 2-up version with enough space for our luggage. It’s faster and easier to handle than our two previous Spyders (RS/RT), especially on our mountain roads and...

    Ryding in the heavy Italian rain over the Alps

    we are used to ryde in the rain - but also with much better tires ( Hankook on the back - Imperial on the front) its not possible to ryde more than 50miles/hour if you are solo with small luggage in heavy rain .. maybe its better with the Spyders due to the higher weight :)...

    My Ryker Rally Adventure Thread

    its no problem to add the "Rally" parts on a standard, but you can find also cheaper 400mm shocks for it, I installed also a riser for my rear shock (2up) The Rally-mode works only till 30miles/hou, so its no problem to ride with the normal mode ..

    We ride many miles here in the mountains, so, heated grips & the deluxe fairing - in 2up mode she needs a little less than in standard or sport. (20k miles now, most 2up with luggage & no real problems!!

    When and where was the first time you rode a Can-Am tryke ??

    instead of our BMW-RS we took 2008 a GS for our 25y honeymoon and changed to a RT (2010) - my plan was to change back to a 2wheeler (Moto Guzzi ?) but than we took the Ryker - for our 40y honeymoon this year ;)

    Review: New owner impressions

    Welcome, a lot of guys (like me) use 165mm font-tires, no problem they fit perfect .. Kendas are not perfect for a Ryker/Spyder, the Rotax engine is too strong :thumbup:

    How can I make a 900 more Rally-like?

    I tested a new 22 Rally - first I prefer the higher handlebars on my 900 std (2018 - 28T miles) - next the tires (no grip) - the three shocks are longer now, which is OK .. but the only difference is the "rally" mode, I love it, but not for this price-difference ! (maybe I invest in the mapping...
