I am going with the 600. I haven't been on a bike in 35 years. Back then it was a YZ 125, so I'm sure the 600 cc engine will feel powerful enough for me as a n00b.

I heard that the seat was very easy to install. Just pull the old one up and out, line up the new one and press it in place.

I'm not really interested in changing the sound on the ryker. That's just me, though.

I believe that I will be getting this upgrade when I finally get my ryker.

That depends on your intended riding style. It's my understanding that the Rally is geared toward off-road riding and is better suited for gravel and dirt roads than the standard edition ryker. I'm sure other folks can go into greater detail on the differences.

From whom did you purchase? I'm in Clearwater and trying to find the best dealer around.

Hi Gang, I'm Mikey and I live around Clearwater in Floriduh. I rode dirt bikes (YZ80s) about 35 years ago, but never actually went any further. I'm looking at the Ryker as my first real bike. So, of course, I'm doing lots of research on it and this looks like a good spot to soak up some info. Cheers.
