• 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.

Ryker 12 Inches Shorter-
Ryker Exact Same wheelbase-67"
Ryker Slightly wider .3 inch-
Ryker Ground Clearance .5 Lower 4.5 to 4.0-
Ryker Seat 3 inches lower-
Ryker weight 90HP 616lbs - 899lbs for Base F3 = 283 lbs LESS!!!
I have had the 900 ACE for 4 years in a Spark and they seem Bullet Proof and Very smooth!
Test drive videos to come this week will make up my mind to sell F3 OR Not!
Would love to make $$ on the Trade-:yikes:
 
Sounds great.

Our new 570 Polaris Ranger UTV is 44 HP and weighs just over 1000 lbs and is a rocket up to its 50 MPH governed max speed.
 
Wow - 30 percent less weight..

Can you say,, 30% faster on the quarter mile? Not that I race, but interesting potential.....

No power steering on the Ryker.....

I read elsewhere that the wheelbase was about a foot shorter....

The bike is about a foot shorter: the wheelbase is about the same.
With the narrower front tires and lighter weight: power steering becomes unnecessary. :thumbup:
 
Something tells me that the new Ryker will be an absolute blast on these twisty Smokey Mountain roads. :thumbup:

Looking forward to them Big Time. :clap:
 
The front hood latch comes off with easy access to fluids, battery- to connect maintainer and heated gloves liners/gloves. I'll bet you can even change the plugs in less than ONE day?:yikes:

I suspect that there won't be deals for awhile and that the value of used Spyders, especially the F3/F3S is going down fast.

I think the horsepower is 77 not 90.
 
Wow! That would make for easy loading on a trailer, when it comes to not scraping the front. Which also tends to make me think. If I was an RV'er, this would be pretty good to tow behind a motor home and take on those little daily excursions. Nothing to travel far on, but good for little trips out to see sights.

:D:agree::clap::yes::yes::yes:
 
Didn't think about the nose to trailer thing. Combine that with the size, easy transmission, and off road ability......and ladies/gents we have an entire new class of bike.

Right now my mind is thinking of a lot of things this bike could be for me that my last spyder wasn't.
