Glad to hear it's been a blast. Issues with the ryker that I have seen I tend to believe either dealer fault or operator not taking care of their bike. Keep posting
Hi Paul, your Ryker looks great! It's a great photo I bought a spare hood for my Rally it was like 23 bucks or so and and the logo was 12 bucks, for after I finish painting it. Your painting instruction has been great! Thanks!
Ryker Rydes yea that’s the bracket for the rear seat. The bag is a large tunnel bag but it has not held up. Less then a year and it lost rings and faded bad. Paul
Nice review I'm thinking about getting one for my wife and get her off her 1300 Honda friend of ours got one of these she fell in love with it but thanks for the review nice job
Nice vid, Paul. I have the 2020 Rally and so far I'm having a blast. I've had it for nearly 3 month and I'm already at 2.5 miles. My only complaint is that I'm getting some break squeaks on the right tire, a problem many ppl seem to having. Other than that the bike is amazing.
Thanks for the review, I am getting one soon and really appreciate your input and day to day information, nothing you have experienced tells me anything other than to get one!!! Thanks again , do you carry any tools or gear for roadside issues? You mentioned fix a flat, have you ever had to use it?
Hey great review. As always. I worry about the hight on the front end. Do you have any problems with speed bumps or have you ever hit anything on/in the road with the front end?
have enjoyed your clip. I am seriously looking at the Can Am...Only been riding a motorcycle since 2002. 71 years old now and time to look at something new and safe to ride.
middlemiss2013 it is a tunnel bag and I’ll save you the money it does not last. About 5 months and the ring are off due to fabric failing. The bag will also in do time. It cost about $120
Cool paint job, now you can swap out different colour panels/hoods, have an awesome tri-colour thing going. I'm on the same page about only wanting to ride solo, but I must say the handles poking out the back of the stock passenger seat give it a menacing profile. And who knows when a random supermodel might need a lift (dreamz) I'm holding out for a couple years. Damn-near a brand new vehicle class, I'll let them work out the kinks of these first few models (like those rattles.) (translation: can't afford a trike right now LOL) Just not excited to deal with the "ThAtS nOt a ReAL bIKe, U mUst HavE a DiSaBiLity" tough guys, although I know most bikers will be cool
I recommend that you take a piece of rubber hose and split it open on one side and then put that around the edges that are rubbing you may not have to do the full ridge to get it to stop rattling
Here is one link but you can find them at other stores for all about the same price. Paul www.denniskirk.com/saddlemen/standard-sport-tunnel-bag-3516-0108.p508306.prd/508306.sku?cid=28872783&aid=4168695818&keyword=1100002625267&kid=1100002625267&ad=81638745970457
Hi fella! Just seen this episode. Liking the running lights. Just had a thought, could they be mounted onto the front fender so they are directional, i.e. They light up the road before you actually turn? Just a though for some other time perhaps? Loving the vids by the way. Just seen my first Ryker over here in the U. K.
@@Jeep-Addicts .. thanks for that info. I'm just looking for something thst I can get around traffic in real quick...and that can get up in speed when needed. I hope this ryker can do just that?
@@Jeep-Addicts THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR RESPONDING. I AM HOIN TO BUY ONE. JUS NEED TO DO A LITTLE BIT MORE HOMEWORK. THIS WILL BE MY MAIN TRANSPORTATION. I LIVE OUT IN LOS ANGELES, CA!! THE COMMUTE AND TRAFFIC IS NOOOO JOKE!! AND I DRIVE AN SUV. TO SAVE ON GAS AND STUFF THIS WILL BE IT. I HAVENT BOUGHT IT YET, JUS NEED MORE INSIDE SCOOP. I HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO CHANGE AN OIL CHANGE. AND AND AND I DRIVE A LOTTTTTTT
Rich Kadire it worked good, water tight and lockable. Looked a little funny but the reason was I like bag behind me and for what I use the bike for that is all I need. Paul
Hi there, am interested of having one. How much does it cost in the British sterling Please ? What's the different between a trike and the can-Am please ?
It's not as comfortable but it is MUCH cheaper and just as fun as a ride. Although you might not want to ride for too long in comparison. Doesn't have as much raw power but you won't be able to tell too much because of the size.
spyder is a touring bike and the ryker is pretty much like the dirt bike version made more to have short burst of fun than days on a a cross country road trip
Kevin Johnson I have not tried a 600 but saw videos and people said they are peppy. Just wonder if the RPM is higher for highway speeds. I’m at 6100 at 65
Kevin, not enough info to answer. •Do you weigh 150 pounds or 300? •Are you going to be hauling a lot of extra weight? •Are you going to be doing a lot of stopping and starting (city driving) or mostly highway driving? •Are you going to be traveling mostly flat roads or will you be traveling a lot of uneven terrain and mountainous areas. •Will you be gunning it a lot, for fun or passing, or most likely be doing slow starts, slow accelerations and riding rather passively? It's about stress. The less stress you put on a motor, the longer it will last. If you put a 250 pound man on a Shetland pony, there's only so much that pony can take.
Why mess around with the air-intake? Why paint a new machine? Cuts its resale value. I could do without the windscreen. The rattles would irritate me, too. Is it quick? Informative video. I have bought a Spyder F3-S. I pick it up on Monday. I have subscribed. Numer 1,000!
I ride a F3S. Good choice. The Ryker is cool and fun, but for me the F3S is the way to go. Gotta have a trunk. Resale value? Who cares. I'm never selling mine. My motorcycles someday, but never this.
In NJ and PA you need a motorcycle license and the easiest way to do that in my opinion is do what I did and do the motorcycle safety course in a weekend and you take the test in the course and get your license next time you go to the DMV
Subaru should make one that is all (3) wheel drive, probably even get better fuel milage. 6700 rpm's that's weed wacker territory! Love the 3 wheel reverse trike platform though, thanks for sharing 😊
Hey Paul, is your Ryker still have rust on the axels? I contacted BRP CUSTOMER-NO-SERVICE they indicated THEY KNOW NOTHING ABOUT RUST ON THE AXELS AND WANT ME TO TAKE MINE TO THE DEALER... HA HA HA. BUT JUST WANTED TO GET IN TOUCH I WANT EVERY ONE TO TAKE THEIR Ryker to their dealer and bitch to see if BRP WILL DO ANYTHING. BE SAFE
@@Jeep-Addicts I'm looking for rubber or Plastic hole plugs 1⅜ or 35.3 mm that will fit. First i tried the snap in cover from the Spyder but it was too small i would like to treat the axles with black Rustoleum then paint the covers Cherry red. If ya find anything that will snap in let me know. I found a few but cant order them.
You got it up to 40mpg? What sorcery is this!? Ive bern driving conservatively on my 600 for 2000 miles and can only get 33.5mpg. :( The 600 was supposed to be the gas saving king.
@@Jeep-Addicts I have 631 miles on mine now it gets 30mpg. My question to you is how long did you drive it when you first got it? Meaning an hour straight each time, 30 minutes here and there. Because I know the way you drive also determines the amount of mpg you get. Just curious. Thanks and keep pushing through those hard runs, play some Rocky music😂🏃♂️🏃♂️🏃♂️ Oh I purchased my Ryker 7/27/19
Excellent 4000 mile review Paul I appreciate you taking your time to keep us updated on the Riker
Ed 👍 Paul
Thank you so much for review. Getting mine next spring!
It is a blast, you will love it. Paul

Great vid! Where did you buy the backrest/bags on the back? Does it need the can am bracket to attach to?
Ryker Rydes yea that’s the bracket for the rear seat. The bag is a large tunnel bag but it has not held up. Less then a year and it lost rings and faded bad. Paul

Thank you and have a good ride and never stop having fun.
Thanks be safe,
I have a weird rattle on mine too but I think it's a rock stuck somewhere since I ride on a lot of dirt roads. Also no issues with mine.
Hey great review. As always.
I worry about the hight on the front end. Do you have any problems with speed bumps or have you ever hit anything on/in the road with the front end?
Cartell Calloway speed bumps are a pain, you have to hit them straight on or drag. I did hit on road kill but luckily it was not bad. Paul
I'm about to get one soon. Love the way you do this video. And how much time and work you put into this. Thanks for sharing..
Rell Cathey thank you. Paul

middlemiss2013 it is a tunnel bag and I’ll save you the money it does not last. About 5 months and the ring are off due to fabric failing. The bag will also in do time. It cost about $120
Velcro in between the plastic parts for rattling?
Are you considering the turbo mod for 115bhp?
Sorry, paint or wrap??
Spray can or brush?

That rear pack is sweet... can you post that link? Nice ryker... I'm thinking about one but seems like finishing quality lacks a bit...
Thomas Waibel it is ok but not holding up to the sun well. It is a large tunnel bag. I’ll look for the place I purchased it. Paul
I recommend that you take a piece of rubber hose and split it open on one side and then put that around the edges that are rubbing you may not have to do the full ridge to get it to stop rattling
Exactly what I was thinking!!
Paul, how do you keep the inside of the hollow on the front wheels from rusting
Howie Gluck I cleaned them real good then sprayed them with silicone spray. Just reapply after a washing. Paul
I cleaned them real good then sprayed them with sylacone spray. I just reapply it after a washing. Paul
Nice paint job
Trevor Millard thanks, Paul
Considering the low ground clearance , any issues with damage to the radiator?
K C it is very venerable to damage from road trash. Even little animals like squirrels will be bad. Paul
Where did you get that bag?, I like that and I bet it's cheaper then the can am option
Mister P it was like $120, it works for me. I will have to look up where I got it just look for a large tunnel bag and you will find them. Paul

What type of paint did you use it looks good
Daniel Milerson I used krylon for plastic. Primer then the paint. I picked it up at Walmart. Paul
Did you paint your bike
Hi fella! Just seen this episode. Liking the running lights. Just had a thought, could they be mounted onto the front fender so they are directional, i.e. They light up the road before you actually turn?
Just a though for some other time perhaps? Loving the vids by the way. Just seen my first Ryker over here in the U. K.
Nicholas Kemp I bet but be careful of the bolts and clearance to the tire. You don’t have much room. Paul
I'm looking for a rally trike like this one, but how is the speed on this? Like, can it get up when needed or it slow?
Jovan Bethel it will scoot really good. I think it would be fine unless you are looking for like the speed of a racing street bike. Paul
@@Jeep-Addicts .. thanks for that info. I'm just looking for something thst I can get around traffic in real quick...and that can get up in speed when needed. I hope this ryker can do just that?

GREAT DAY!!
Q?? WHEN IT COMES TO OIL CHANGE, AT WHAT MILEAGE AND HOW MUCH DOES AN OIL CHANGE COST?
Kai Diver they say 3000 miles, if you do it, should cost about $50. Take it to a shop and could be close to $300. Paul
The people who want to charge you say that? The manual says 6000 miles or 1 year, whichever comes first.
Kai Diver 3000 miles and the oil is $50 and filter kit is about $13. Paul

why did you take the side bags off? I am thinking of getting the side bags for my Rally is there pros and cons?

How many miles , still have it?
They aren’t to noisey...would be nice if they had a sound system...could one be added?

Hi there, am interested of having one. How much does it cost in the British sterling Please ?
What's the different between a trike and the can-Am please ?
william wallice you would have to convert 10000 us to Britain Sterling. Difference is two up front much more stable. Paul
@@Jeep-Addicts Thank you very much fella ,that helps 👍🏽🤘🏽
I’d like to see a manual version. Should drop the price a little and make it more fun.

Install you a Good Car tire on the Back, they will Hold Up Much Longer, several video's on YT about doing this subject..
randy beard thanks for the advice. Paul
I was thinking about buying one it doesn't come with a windshield?
Jeff Thompson no, that is like $200 if I remember
The brake light tie in... Bro, solder and heat shrink that thing. Scotch locks are bad juju.
Joe Jenkins you are right I need to, when I bring it in and do more work I will. Thanks Paul
How does the can am ryker compare with a can am spyder?
