Thank you. .the words of wisdom...the shocks is where BRP cut corners regardless if it's a Spyder or Ryker..you put some M2 or Elka shocks on the front and rear..and then ride two up...no problems... the fox shock springs are too weak for two up riding...

We will continue this topic when more of you get on here and have pictures like the top of this post had!! I can make a sr5 Toyota pick up haul a ton of cargo but how long and where do you put it!! Every one has there own thoughts that's what make us what we are!! Have a good day gents!! Ride had and smile lots!!!

I had a Toyt Tacoma, that I removed the OEM bed from , and made a flatbed for it. Then I constructed a steel frame from 1" angle @ 1/8 thick.... then I covered that with 26ga. galvanized 4x8 sheets...… This was all done, so I could put my 2014 RT inside and go cross country ….. The OEM weight load was way less than what I had added, so I used Air Bags in conjunction with the leaf springs..... I have some pics in my Albums …… Mike hyea:

Look at the weight limit on some motorcycle tires. Some bikes have skinny front tires too. The weight limit on many motorcycles is an avg of 450lbs. Go to a bike rally and look at some of the "healthy" two ups riding around. Some of them come from other states. I am not saying that the Ryker is made for two up, but like someone else said, they make passenger seats. My daughter and her husband or their young adult children ride my Ryker all over the place, spending the whole day on it, with NO damage so far. I am not saying it won't happen, but I bet the only way it will happen is if they go over a speed bump too fast or something of similar nature. Who knows? I will eventually get around to installing new springs or shock combos, but it's cheaper to replace the damaged fender right now. I know because I replaced my rally fender with a full Ryker fender for less than a hundred bucks. Besides, it's plastic. You are going to get blemishes on plastic, so enjoy it instead of worrying about it.

we plan a longer tour this year, so I use a larger Tank-bag and will add a bag on the front over the hood .. I also changed my seat (I look like a dwarf, when my girl sits behind me ..)
it's getting interesting to see how the new 3-case systems (fixed behind the passenger UNDER the maxmount) work with the closed fender of the 600/900 ACE ..
