Re: 600 ACE or 900 ACE?

Now that this has been a year or so, how do people feel? I feel the 600 is fine and there is no reason to go with the 900. The bike is always at peak hp so is much more powerful than a 600cc road bike. I figure mine has 20% more hp than my Sportster had and 20% less than my Superglide - Both of whic...

Universal saddlebags on Ryker

I had some saddlebags laying around and decided to put them on my Ryker. I never removed them from my old bike, so I did a semi-permanent install. If traveling I always put stuff in a bag for easy carrying before putting in the saddlebags anyways. I bent a plate for a saddlebag support and put the s...

Leave the key in all the time?

Can I leave the key attached to my Ryker all the time? Or will it drain the battery like on my Subaru? The bike is locked in a secure location and I have no fear of someone getting to it.

If nervous or you trailer alot, simply cut the rail off behind the trailer fender and reweld on using a 1 or 1.5" square tube. I have a 2x4 screwed into the...

Re: Towing your Ryker???

I know this post is a few months old, but I think a 5 foot trailer is adequate. I back mine up the trailer ramp with the 2 wheels at the back of the trailer. I moved the rails in back of the wheels 2 inches out. That means the 60" width becomes 64". I like the tighter fit.
