Re: WHY Does The Ryker Get such POOR MPG???

I'm new here, less than 300 miles on my Rally. The reason for poor MPG seems very obvious because the revs are kept high even when it appears (to me) that it doesn't need to. Perhaps someone will create a software hack to truly lessen the RPMs when in Eco mode. Yeah, I bought the Ryker mostly for fu...

Re: Universal saddlebags on Ryker

I bent a plate for a saddlebag support and put the saddlebag strap between it and the bottom of the max-mount. You say that like you just grabbed a piece of metal with your hands made it submit to your wishes. :D I wish I had access to the tools and machines to do something like that. It looks a li...

Re: Handlebars Crooked

Anything ever come of this? I just picked up a 2020 Rally and the bars don't match the windshield. I'm not sure which is off.

Re: Rear fender on a 900 Rally

Details, it's all in the details. Got a part number? I just got a Ryker Rally and that seems like a good idea unless rocks get stuck up in the new rear fender. Ok, so I decided to try and locate the part number myself and if found share it. So the P/N I think it is is 705013618. I found this here: h...

Re: High Maintenance Cost?

This and a lack of videos on changing belts and plugs has me concerned. These are still relatively new machines so hopefully more maintenance videos will show up soon. I'm actually considering maybe a Spyder F3 as it seems maintenance is less frequent. A big reason I choose to work on my machines is...

Re: Tire Lifetime?

"I believe the tires on the rally edition are made of softer rubber for better traction off-road" Just curious, what makes you think the Rally tires are softer?

High Maintenance Cost?

I'm very interested in the Ryker. After 30 years riding 2 wheels my body is suggesting I move on. As always I research a new potential ride for maintenance issues and cost. I downloaded a PDF copy of the "Operators Guilde" and found this: Replace CVT drive belt, plugs, gearbox oil, and final drive o...

Re: Rally Inner Rear Fender Standard or Optional?

What do you mean? Are you asking what model, what place, what feature? I am assuming it is a Rally edition with gauge cluster shield, no idea where.

Re: Throttle Cable or Throttle by Wire

I'm thinking cruise control as it should be much easier with throttle by wire already in place. Just a thought.

Throttle Cable or Throttle by Wire

Not owner (yet) so I can't go look. Just looking at pics it looks like maybe, just maybe the Ryker is throttle by wire? Anyone know?
