Re: Rally Edition Use

This is what my Rally looks like after using it for what it was intended -- running the dirt backroads! I love dual-sporting, but the bikes were getting too tall and I was getting too old. So...with 3 wheels I can't fall over and can once again get back on the dirt roads around me. Am loving it. No...

Re: Alignment to Stabilize High Speed Handling

:ugeek: I haven't experienced any high-speed handling issues. My Dealer seems to have done an excellent job with PDE. I rode the bike stock for about two weeks before installing the Fox Podium shocks all around and the upgraded red swaybar. In stock form, the handling is very good for anyone up to a...

Re: Drivers Comfort Seat

I rode around on the stock seat for about 2 weeks before installing the comfort seat. The stock seat, being made from memory foam is actually quite comfortable and supportive. It does seem to be temperature sensitive though, feeling much softer when it's warm out. I found the lip on the rear of the ...

I wish there was a service manual( repair?) for the Ryker with a lot of details on the construction of the trike. The owners Manual is OK, but really doesn't tell you very much. I read it thru twice the first day i go it.
The actual service manual is on the way... :ugeek:

Re: 600 ACE or 900 ACE?

I picked the 900 ace simply because i am used to riding 750 to 1000 cc motorcycles. I had a 600 honda shadow and i thought it was a dog. BUT, the 900 Ryker is a very quick trike. A vette could not get past me until we hit 70 mph. The Ryker is a bit scary on acceleration. After i break it in for 6-7...

Re: Missing parking brake lock for U.S.?

My ryker has a locking lever on the left side just in front of the gas tank. The only problem i see is anyone can walk up and flip the lock off. That is the parking brake. Just to the left of the lever is a round plug that would house the parking brake LOCK. North American Rykers do not get this lo...

First in the state?

Picked my Ryker up from Fey Myers today. Most of my accessory parts won't be available until the end of next month or so. I rode it home in the dark. first ride was VERY impressive. It's much lighter and sharper handling than the F3, but still feels very planted at higher speeds. The lower center of...
