Can-Am Ryker Forums

I'm 36 from Indiana. I currently own a Slingshot. I'm thinking of making the move to the Ryker. I did a 3 wheeled motorcycle riding course last fall and enjoyed riding the spyder. I'm trying to decide if I should get the 900 ace or Rally version. I'm 6ft 260. The wife enjoys riding in the Slingshot with me. I'm an ATV guy and never really owned any 2 wheelers. I'm hoping to decide which one to choose and figure out if the Ryker would be alright for a 2 up day trip if she decides to go with me. Anyway! I enjoy reading through the topics on here and stalking from a far. haha

I ended going with the rally, haven't had the wife on it yet because still a little cold here....but will get her out soon and report back. The combined weight for rider and passenger and gear has to be under 450 pounds ,according to owners manual.

I noticed the 900 ACE has a higher weight limit. Why is that?
