• 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 would suggest you add the 2UP rear spring and max out the preload on the rear spring. You won't be able to have a passenger over 90 pounds, but the 2UP spring will help with your size to keep from bottoming out on the fender when hitting bumps. I'm small (130lbs) and I was surprised how much it sunk with a 100lb passenger (total 230lbs).
 
Let me first say that I have not ridden or even sat on a ryker yet...

But I do have some doubts that the ryker is the right ryde for you. From what I have read the ryker is a fun around town and on back roads machine, and while it will do highway miles just fine its probably not nearly as competent or comfortable as a spyder is at that particular job. Since you are commuting 70 miles I would search for a used spyder instead.
 
Ride them. All of them, then decide. There are incredible deals on left overs. Factor in a windshield, bags, a saddle (Ryker saddles are not for big guys) and decide. The Ryker is best suited for in town. Some people have toured on one, but I think you will appreciate the 1330 engine. Happy hunting! Joe
