What Did You Do To Your RYKER Today?

[RayzorRyker]

My new Rkyer Rally



Hi all. I spent 12 hours (never done a wrap before) wrapping my Rally plus adding some hand deflector/LED lights to my handle bars. Also upgraded the headlights to full LEDs, added some aftermarket fully adjustable (up/down plus angle) wind shield, front tank bag and rear luggage.

Now THAT's a WRAP! hyea: :yes: Lookin' GOOD! :thumbup:


And :welcome: to the Forum, posting, and of course Welcome to the Wonderful World of Spyders/Rykers and the Miles of Smiles they can bring too! :congrats:

Very nice wrap. :clap: :2thumbs: :firstplace:

Just installed a throttle control slip-on device. I bought a 4 pack thru Ebay I think. I originally wanted it for my f3 but when I put it on the Ryker, wow what a difference. An added benefit, it really helps to avoid the clunk on take-off. It makes for really smooth throttle action on both the f3 and the Ryker. 8 bucks for a 4 pack and free delivery.

Sounds like it's just a cheap version of the Crampbuster.

 

[Rydernow]

Cheap version of something, that's for sure. 4 of em for 8 bucks. I still can't get over how pleased I am with it. I'm gonna try giving you a pic of a similar one I found on-line. If I can't, just do a search for universal throttle control, motorcycle. They'll pop up.

 

[RykerRick]

Yep, its a version of the crampbuster.

there are now so many Ryders with this fairing, so I plan to add some red strips on mine, I think that will make her faster ?!?
She also got an Italian name now: "dolce vita"

 

[cueman]

What does Dolce Vita translate to?

[Peter Aawen]

What does Dolce Vita translate to?

Literal translation from Italian = Sweet Life - even tho the movie title 'La Dolce Vita' is often 'loosely interpreted' as 'The Good Life'. :thumbup:

It's a good name for a Spyder/Ryker tho! hyea:

 

[cueman]

Thanks for the translation. It sure would be nice to visit and ride there as it looks very scenic, but USA wants people to not go too much. Some day it would be nice. :cheers: cueman

Chris, I imagine you've ridden to the Top Of Mountain Motorcycle museum, (probably many times). I saw a video of the riding in that area and it just looked magical. Sadly the museum just recently suffered a catastrophic fire and some very rare bikes were lost, along with all the others. A big loss for the global motorcycling community.

What Did You Do To your Ryker Today?
I've hoisted the colors!

 

[Markubis]

WOOO!!

Go TB!!

TB stands for Tampa Bay as well as Tom Brady. I'm from New England and I have been rooting for Tom this entire year. He always took pay cuts up here in NE so they could spend the money on better players.

I would love to see him go through Drew Brees, Aaron Rodgers and Patrick Mahomes for this SB ring.

 

[cueman]

Installed two 2” square 10w LED’s in my Outlander fairing. Not wired up yet, too cold. :yikes: cueman

 

[MudBug]

I installed these Can-Am parts:
- Max mount
- driver backrest
- windshield
- hand guards

Annoyances:
1. Yanking the seat trim off as you see in YouTube videos really is the easiest way to remove it. Be prepared for that unless you have a set of specialized Torx drivers including stubby/right angle. The mystery screws are really hard to access.
2. I put the hand guards on only to realize too late that the air deflectors I have in the box have to be put on AS you're installing the hand guards. Now I have to take them off (another day). :chill:
3. The mirrors don't come off very easily. If you're doing it, look it up on YouTube to save frustration.
4. The gasket material they put on the windshield mount scrapes off REALLY easily.

Other than that, I must say that the parts were all of good quality. None were made in China, shockingly.
