THAT IS NOT A MOTOCYCLE 😂😂😂😂😂
Lots and lots of people have that same opinion. I call it a three-wheeler. 👍 Thanks for participating 🏆
Yes and it is better😉
Eh, yes it is. A cycle isn't limited to two wheels. Cycles of any kind typically have 1-4 wheels.
It IS a motorcycle, by definition. FACT.
It is NOT a trike.
Regards.
If it's not a motorcycle when ya drive past someone on a motorcycle do they give you the universal hand signal? I'm curious to know because I'm about to buy one and I'd hate to throw the hand signal and not receive it in return it's a respect issue
Correction 3 wheel bikes are still motorcycles.
I love them. It’s like a snowmobile with wheels
i am 63 live in Montreal Canada and own a Ryker 2021 Ace 900 , ok I modified it with new suspension elkas, link and sway bar, ok we have bad road due to winter, also a new confort seat, Radiator Grill, a llink plate and urban bag.. I do have a large skid plate and the light modulator, Leed light, the front fender light that joint to the flasher and a lot of 3m yellow stick , I call it yellow and love to city ride and cruise outside of the city ........ I love it and yes Sport mode is the thing , ok remove the peg and put small foot rest ... ok ..ok I am have a great time modifying this machine as love to modify it and just love riding it ...........Alain and Yellow
Instead of squeezing with your knees brace your outside foot on the peg (turn left push on the right foot peg and visa versa), it's much less fatiguing that way and you feel more stable. I would love to have cruise control! Can-am did right on that add on.
Yes - as you mention it and me thinking about it, THAT SURE IS part of making turns! Thanks! Subscribe!!
@@ThreeBikeMike I subscribed when you rode in the parking lot. I subscribe to all my Ryker people!
Bravo best review on a ryker I have seen. I’ve been riding for over 20 years.
Thank you.
Thanks for doing this detailed video on a first ride! I would consider something like this instead of a scooter when I retire in the islands. Very cool!
I have the BRP Adventure Windshield on my Ryker and I’m really happy with it. At Highway speeds it really cuts down the wind noise in my helmet. I originally tried the smaller Sport Windshield. The difference is night and day. Congrats on your new ride.
Thanks!!
Very informative great casual driving demonstration thanks
Thanks sharing this video! Mike
You bet!
At 1.53 zoom in to see the odd toes on this lady. 🎉
Great video - exactly the content I needed. You and Coach Bob have alerted me to the fun of CanAms. I am coming to the end of two wheel bikes due to aged hip issues. I feel that the Spyder may spread my knees too much around the motor, so the Ryker seems an ideal choice. Will test ride soon here in the UK.
YEA about the hips on a Spyder. I Sat on an older model and I would have to have the hips of a Hooker to be comfortable. LOL. That convienced Me to go with the Ryker. Happy I did!
Pegs are adjustable as the break peddle you move with ft peg for comfort.
Love my Ryker Rally!
My husband got him one and I bought myself one.
Both have bad knees so at our age we can enjoy the ride without holding up our bikes.
2020 bought brand new, 2023 still going strong.
Have fun y'all, ladies we can enjoy our own bikes too so get out there.
=)
Thanks for sharing this ride with us. I look forward to watching your highway video next. Liked and subbed.
What a GREAT video!!!
10/10
WELL Done.
EXCELLENT.
HELLO from 'OZ'. (Australia)
Thanks!
Great video mate. I'm from Australia and had a ryker 600 then upgraded to a spyder f3s daytona. They are both so much fun to ride but im glad I upgraded to the f3s. I made a video riding it on my channel. Sennerary is very different in Australia to where u live
Man, you must have some major experience in decision driving training. Very impressive how you're calling everything out as you're riding. I think everyone will agree It's not a motorcycle but they sure as hell are a ton of fun.
Thank you.
They are classified as a motorcycle.
We bought 2 CanAm Ryker Rally during the Covid garbage.
We ride up a 1 mile dirt mountain rd on ours to our cabin.
Keep front wheels high on ground so center front is high you're good.
Changed to LED, Brite whites because in the mountains in Virginia etc the deer are everywhere.
We ride highway, mountains etc and never a dull time.
900cc engines, plenty of power for highway.
God Bless and have fun all.
Come on ladies, we all enjoy our own bikes as well as the men.
Be careful out there.
Nice Ryker! I also bought from Woods Cycle Country.
Man thanks for the information ℹ️ 😁💪🏾
Deer whistlers are great and really do a good job.
Great commentary and review.
Thank
You
❤great video. Thanks
Thank you for watching!
Don’t have to lean all that much on turns and you can miss man hole covers by aligning the outside of the front wheel just out side the corner cover so nearer the front tire or rear tire hits the cover.
Yep. Don’t have to lean much at all. Have learned part of it is to put pressure down on the 🦶 outside side of the turn.
Good stuff.
Great review man I’ll be picking up my ryker sport on Saturday I can’t wait only thing I’m nervous about is my first ride ever will be on the highway 😂
Did you pick it up??
@@ThreeBikeMike yessir their a blast to ride
@@arnisbole7821 Sounds great -- hope you enjoy every day!
@@ThreeBikeMike did you say first oil change should be done after the first 200 mile break in period then again at 6k I thought i saw in manual to do oil change after the break in period but now I can’t find it
@@arnisbole7821 See this:
can-am.brp.com/on-road/us/en/owner-zone/getting-started/vehicle-information/3-wheel-motocycle-break-in-period.html
Good video (informative)!
what are you riding? #vincode17
Glad you liked it!
I just bought a 2022 Can Am Ryker Sport identical to yours, might be able to pick it up tomorrow. Looking forward to it!
Didi you get it??
@@ThreeBikeMike yes last Tuesday! I have over 500 miles on it now! Love it
Looking to buy 1 thanks for the information about alignment out the crate!!!! If I do buy one I will make sure I have the dealer do this as well before I take delivery.
They won’t want to so you do I’ll have to talk them through it.
@@ThreeBikeMike depending on difficulty I'd do it my self but I'm sure going to press the issue of no sale if there not willing to
Mostly I always mod my bike I added more lights & put brake free helmet light too!
Great video!! I’ve been driver on 2 wheels and currently passenger. I have been looking at the Ryker as my next fun ride. We don’t do a lot of highways, but do a lot of long distance country roads. How do you feel with the mpg and how often you need to fill up?
I only get about 135 miles before the need fuel light comes on. Been a while since I tracked fuel mileage, though. I did when new but soon, it is no longer a consideration - fun takes over. But - 31 miles per gallon is what I remember. On FB, there are two groups. One named “can am ryker owners group” and “the can am ryker owners club.”
Check the tires while they are warm. The air pressure will increase as the tires heat up. 28 psi on cold tires could turn into 32 psi when the tires warm up.
Yes. That is a given. But you do not decrease air pressure in a tire when it gets warm. What? You want them to be under-pressure when they become cool again? Your logic is off.
On My 2022 Ryker Sport It has self canceling signal lights. They will not cancel most times changing lanes though. As far as MUST HAVES, These are the ones I rate highest and are very happy with are Adventure Windshield. Slackmods Floorboards, Slackmods Adjustable Backrest and BRP transmission Skid plate and Radiator screen and front protector. I am 79 years old and can no longer pick up My 900 pound 1500 cc Suzuki Intruder with 178,000 K. New Right Hip and a Back Operation later, I Bought My 2022 Sport on May 26 and as of mid Sept I just had My first Service at 8,300 K. SO GREAT to have My Ass on a saddle and My Head in the wind again! LOL. BTW. I am up here in Nova Scotia Canada.
Wow, you are racking up the miles!
Yeah - they only self cancel on sharp corner turns. Says that I the manual. I just get used to ousting the button again to cancel because my other two bikes I have to push the button, so I do on the Ryker also.
I was like... This dude is riding through Copperas Cove?! 🤔
Hi Mike! I’m glad I found you on CZcams because I also saw you on the Facebook group! And what’s more amazing that than, you live where I live! Would love to meet ya some day and when I get my 22 Ryker Sport, we shall go on a ride together! And most likely will need some of your assistance with installing upgrades 😆great video, keep them coming!
Sounds great! Now subscribe! LOL. I have some videos with 37-K views but I wish I had those as subscribers too!
Yessir, I already subscribed and all notifications turned on! 🥳
@@kellyndaflorez8470 Thank you Ma'am - Feel free to send a FB friend request or at least an IM.
Yes, I will send fb request when I see your name pop up again in the can-am group!
@@kellyndaflorez8470 when do you expect to receive your ryker? #vincode17
I can highly recommend TheSmoaksVlogs to you Mike. He is an BRP mechanic who works on Rykers and Spyders and has a lot of insight. He actually warned about ECO-mode as I recall.
czcams.com/users/TheSmoaksVlogs
Thanks. I have watched. I also have visited the dealer up in Vancouver, Washington back in May 2022 ... but he was not in. Shame.
Hi Mike, you can adjust the angle on your brake pedal as well.
Yeah, thanks. I've tried that. But what I am talking about is the foot peg itself - it is flat/level with the ground, but should be able to be canted backwards a bit at an angle.
I also added the wider brake pedal. I think THAT is necessary, because the stock brake pedal is so small, all you can get on it is your big toe and the once next to it. With the wider brake pedal, now the entire ball of your foot provides stopping power.
@@ThreeBikeMike the bigger brake pedal on longer rides i found it to be in the way unless you have foot boards. i did a long trip on my ryker and found that to be an issue. #vincode17
@@VinCode17 Thanks - I did that since recording this video. YES you have your entire foot on the brake pedal instead of just your BIG TOE!!
I just got mine...I'm having a issue unlocking my gas tank after I have unlocked it...have you experienced that? Beside that I've been on two motorcycle. A sport. A cruiser. And now a can am. And I must say it's waay different and I love it
I have experienced NOT being able to get my gas cap unlocked after I have locked it. I know I am doing everything right, but I eep playing with it and trying again and again, and then it works, and I have NO IDEA what I did differently to finally get it to unlock. It REALLY pisses me off!
Some how after reading your message I ended up figuring it out lol thanks man..ps ..if your out in ga let's ride lunch on me. The Ryker is amazing
Nice areas to ride.✌
Can you drive this on the interstate hwy? Can you buy one with a windshield? Are these safer (more stability) than the trikes with one wheel at the front and 2 rear wheels? Nice video...ty for creating and sharing.
Yes - you certainly can drive it on the highway. I recently installed the adjustable tall windshield and it makes a difference. I think there is no difference between wheel configuration, but I have not ever ridden one with one wheel in front and two in the back. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Great review.
I noticed in another video you have a cover over it for outside storage. How do you like that particular cover? thanks. Great videos.
Thanks for watching. I like the cover. I only wish they were not all black. I wish they were light colors, or even silver because of the sun. They are all form-fitting and not loose at all. Sewn-in elastic bands hold the cover close, down low around the tires, and two straps go underneath from side to side - one near the front and the other towards the rear. When I say they are form-fitting; because I have a luggage rack, the rack gets in the way of it going low enough to cover the rear wheel completely, but it still works. Here is a link to the one I bought:
KEMIMOTO Full Cover Compatible with Can-Am Ryker 600 900 Sport and Rally Edition Upgraded Outdoor Protection Full Cover with Reflective Strips a.co/d/a2ppdpn
Thank you so much for your excellent feedback!
@@bertandjo Hope you subscribe and share. You are welcome.
Awesome first ride. Your salesperson/company did NOT do a good job running through features when you bought it (Mine also did not due to these being in short supply so they do not sell enough to remember details, perhaps). Is a CVT so no gears to show. Turns signals DO self cancel when making a full right or left turn but if you do a soft turn angle and/or use signals to change lanes then they do not self cancel.
Thanks man!
I have now watched several of your Ryker vids. You have a great attitude and good info also. Is amazing how little the salespeople at dealerships know so the 'debrief' information at purchase is about half of what I"m used to on MCs and cars in general. ALSO, I do have mine fully aligned but added sway bar.....do not feel much difference but it is red and looks awesome down there :)@@ThreeBikeMike
I was looking to get one of these and had to laugh when I saw you driving through Copperas Cove. I live a few miles outside of Cove. Still enjoying your Ryker?
Yes. Most recent addition is the adjustable sport windshield.
Great I get mine next yr
IT'S A SNOWMOBILE FOR THE SUMMER
excellent review sir! I want one, but one reviewer warned of minor, but still annoying mechanical issues. how has your Ryker behaved? thank u and, ride safe!
There are issues and i have a video on the rear brake light staying on (which eventually had a recall and is now fixed). Currently there is a fuel pump recall but I have not received my notice yet.
@ThreeBikeMike thank u sir.
I have a 22 ryker 600 already have 7k on it its fun to ride
Heard loads of complaints about no power steering, very hard to take turns. How was it for you?
Fine and no problems. Only needs proper wheel balance and alignment.
It’s easy to take turns. Just load your foot on the opposite peg and lean in.
Are you interested in testing products? We would like to ask you to test the UTV Cover for Ryker.
Sure - send an email to meamigo@gmail.com
How tight can it make a uturn??
About 13-feet. Some residential streets are tight so I find myself pulling to the right near the curb, then backing into driveways to turn around.
Seems like a lot of bounce??
If you mean a bouncy ride, it is no more than a car or any other vehicle. Could be camera shake you are noticing. Thanks for watching !! And commenting !!!
Nevertheless I enjoyed your video.
Thanks 🙏 man!
Mike, I know this video is a year old, I'm assuming you found that you could adjust the brake angle.
Yes sir. 🤲
Was this a 900 or 600?
900.
That’s what she said 😂
Just like riding a fourwheeler 🤷🏼♂️
Is this motorcycle for one person?
Some people add a passenger seat, but it is built as a solo machine.
Is 900 to much or can I get away with the 600
It was not a consideration for me. I did not even research it. I went by the stats of all models at the can-am website. I looked at the 600 there, but it did not appeal to me.
@@ThreeBikeMike thank you. Im new to riding. I used to have a Yamaha V star 1100. But it was slow.
is this the 900cc
Yes
Turn signals should be self canceling on that model. .
Thanks, man! They are on sharp turns. They are not self-cancelling on wide turns or lane changes. So, I make sure they cancel every time by pressing the button.
Oh, and I wanted to add I have two other bikes without self-cancelling turn signals, so it is just easiest to transfer the same riding methods to all the bikes.
pour advertising,
nice bike
Turn signals do self cancel.
Only in sharp turns - even explains it in the manual
Is it hard to steer the Ryker? It appears that you are roaming in the video.
I’m not
600cc or 900cc?
Ryker sport is 900
👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👋👋👋👋
Turn signals ARE self cancelling.
Only in sharp turns. Lane changes and slight turns, they do not self-cancel.
They do on mine.
@@ThreeBikeMike
It’s a motorcycle but not a motorbike
😅😅 28 pounds in the rear
leave as,
bought lives,
longer
$400 for assembly? Leave to motorcycle or car stealerships to figure out a way to separate you from your hard earned money.
Absolutely absurd. Charge the consumer $400 because the bike arrives at the stealership unassembled? Right! Got it!
THIS IS THE MOST BOOMER VIDEO I HAVE EVER WATCHED AHAHHAHAHAHAH
Thanks for watching. I have more Boomer videos.
There are no gears. It’s an automatic transmission. Just like a snowmobile.
Thank you for your participation. I do not have any trophies or gold stars, but you get a 💯 and a lollipop! 🍭‼
If you a hater just say it, you ain’t buy it so even worry about it, probably can’t even afford it
It's a Trike...people
Turn signals are self canceling I know because I have a 2023 can am Ryker sports 900.
Only in sharp turns on mine Hawaii man
Never understood why people have a problem with these things because they have three wheels.. trikes have three wheels but nobody seems to have a problem with that... Not to mention Troy some more dangerous to ride than one of these
They are lots of fun. I guess people badmouth what they do not understand. I used to be a Harley guy and owned three different ones over the years. I would not have ever owned any other bike but a Harley. Now I own this Ryker, a Triumph and two Yamahas. Might be getting a third Yamaha soon
