How is Highway Riding on a Can-Am Ryker?
Vložit
- čas přidán 27. 03. 2020
- Many viewers ask about if the Can-Am Ryker is up to the task of tackling highway riding. I personally don't come from a background of riding other motorcycles, but my Ryker Rally with 900 ACE engine has handled itself spectacularly for me on local highways. I do recommend approaching highway riding with caution, but not fear. Work up to highway rides at your own pace and wear protective gear when riding. Let me know in the comments about your experience with motorcycle riding on major highways. Feel free to share your tips with other riders, that's how we build an awesome community!

My first ride on a Ryker was about two weeks ago when I bought one for our son and drove it 100 miles home from Iron Pony Motorcports in Columbus, Ohio. You are absolutely right, it takes a little getting use to.
I've ridden two wheeled motorcycles since the 1960's and about three years ago we had to go to a trike (HD) due to my wife's health issues, she's battled cancer eight times, had 12 surgeries in ten years, maxed out on chemo, radiation and cyber knife treatments. She is currently on immunotherapy treatments and will be every 28 days for the rest of her life. She currently can't walk even with a walker. This past Summer she would walk out to the garage with her walker, climb upon our trike and we'd go for a ride when ever the weather permitted. We rode over 10,000 miles this year. We use to ride over 15,000 before all the cancer treatments ruined her hips.
The Harley trike TOOK SOME GETTING USE TOO! Harley trikes steer hard and will wear you out in the twisties. The Ryker 600 is much much easier to steer. I enjoyed every mile on the Ryker even though it was dark, raining and 52 degrees (F). After about fifty miles I learned if I just pull back on both sides of the handlebars ever so slightly there was NO twitching and it drove straight as a poker. I rode at 65 to 70 MPH most of the way and I'm sure it will do 85 all day long comfortably. anything over that I'm afraid would be pushing it a little hard.
We bought the Ryker 600 ACE for our son who use to ride a two wheeled motorcycle until he had a stroke which crippled his left side. He can no longer operate the clutch or shifter on a regular motorcycle. The Ryker is the perfect choice for someone like that. I'm sure he will wear a smile from ear to ear every day next Summer when the weather is right.
The HD trikes are definitely a little harder to tame. I’m glad that your family found ways to keep riding and enjoying something that y’all love together. Pretty amazing to read a little bit about your family’s story on this Christmas morning. Inspires me to keep going when things are a little tough. Ride safe out there and I hope y’all enjoy that Ryker! Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
@@3WheelKhalil Thank you, and Merry Christmas to you and your family.
@@3WheelKhalil HD trikes ride like an old dump truck.
Hey nice video. I have a Ryker 600 and it tops out at 90-92 in does 75-85 very easy.... just for people out there wondering.
HEY TRENTON, I’M ABOUT TO BUY MY FIRST CAN AM RYKER AND I LIKE THE PRICE ON THE 600, I’LL MOSTLY BE RIDING IN THE CITY(SOUTHERN CITY IN AL.) BUT I WAS WONDERING IF YOU HAVE ANY ISSUES WITH LIKE POT HOLES OR BUMPS AND THINGS OF THAT NATURE WITH IT BEING SO LOW TO THE GROUND, FROM WHAT I SAW THE 900 IS UP OFF THE GROUND A LITTLE MORE THAN THE 600, BESIDES THE 900 IS NOT MUCH DIFFERENT AND THAT LOW TO THE GROUD THINGS IS MY ONLY CONCERN, HELP A BROTHER OUT LOL, HAPPY,SAFE RIDIG BRUH
rejji7 what’s up..... only the rally edition sits up a little more higher. My 600 handles potholes very well. I would say this..... if you’re going to finance it I’ll pay the extra $1500 to get the 900 (payments shouldn’t be that much more) I think it’s worth it because they are so much fun and having that extra speed is worth every penny lol. I only bought the 600 because the 900 was sold out but don’t get me wrong...... I’m totally satisfied with my 600. I also have a Camaro ZL1 and a Lexus coupe and I must say the ryker is my best purchase yet by far.... it’s like riding a go cart on the streets. I hope this helps. Let me know what you decided to get..
@@yungjefe1876 thanks for the info, i decided on the 900, i appreciate your feedback, Happy, Safe Riding
What rpm does yours rest at when going about 75-ish? I'm new to bikes and I know they run hotter than car engines, so I'm just curious
I think thats a great speed , fast enough for anyone
This has to be the quietest motovlog I've heard. Good job.
No kidding. So calm, no screaming. I definitely prefer this style of motovlog.
Appreciate that, thanks for watching.
Just finished watching most of your videos. Thank you for being so informative and not screaming into your mic like other reviewers. You the man.
Thanks for watching, glad you enjoy the content!
That's because he did the voice-over in post, so he isn't competing with wind noise. That her his microphone is just fire.
I have had years of experience riding on interstate highways on two wheels. I have found the Ryker to handle very well. I think some people tend to maintain too stiff of a grip on the handlebars causing a very jerky ride. My 600 is perfect for a grumpy old man. 😁
Thank you for the highway ride. This is exactly what I was wondering about.
Another great video thanks so much only thing I could ask for is more of them!!! Your delivery is so smooth and you are so well spoken its a pleasure to listen to you speak, great content and I am learning a lot about the Ryker from you so thanks

mike parr Glad these videos are helpful to you! I’m trying to post weekly, usually Fridays. Thanks for the encouragement too. I love making the videos for y’all, so I’m happy y’all like watching them!
Awesome video! Thanks for sharing this much needed information.
You are right about making sure you are rockin’ all your gear. Good video.
Always!
Thanks for this video; I just got a 900 and wondered how it would do on the highway. We live in the same area so I recognized everywhere you rode on I95,
I'm glad you mentioned the mirrors, I'll now order the mods from Slingmods now. I enjoy riding my Ryker on the highway, I do have a shield, which makes a huge difference. Very stable, even at speeds of 85-95 mph!! Thanks for the info & great vids!! Stay safe out there brother!!
Nsureu hamp the mirrors are one of the top upgrades I’ve done and it’s such a small thing. They made a big difference though! Thanks for watching and safe travels out there!
Good review. I appreciate you. I really am thinking about getting one.
randy k I doubt you’d be disappointed with that choice, thanks for act watching!
Great review. Precise and detailed. Wish we had more contributors like you. Thank you.
Thank you, it's much appreciated!
Thanks for the information, just finished the cam-am riding course 2 weeks ago. My wife used the ryker and I used the F3 and the ryker for the course. I liked them both. She was hesitant about the F3. She never had ridden a motorcycle before, she loved it. Glad to know that the ryker handles well on the highway at highway speeds. Ride safe.
Glad you both enjoyed the course! I am such a big fan of that program that I actually just finished training to become an instructor of it myself.
Thinking about getting one of these, I haven't watched any of your previous videos but I can definitely recognize the area XD... enjoyed the video!
Twittyproductions nice nice, I would love to see more 3 wheel riders in this area! Thanks for watching!
New subscriber thx for tha great footage bro!!
Great to see you are still able to get out! We’re on full lock down here in NZ, hoping it’ll make a difference 🙏 Stay safe out there bro 😎👊
Robert Pearce yeah, myself and most others have been ordered to work from home, but we are still able to get out. All restaurants are take out only and all non-essential businesses in the county have been forced to close. I’ve only been out riding a couple times in the past two weeks and other than that I’ve been (happily) staying in my house. You stay safe as well man, glad to hear you’re doing your part to contribute to public health!
no its all a hoax,power grab and depopulation agenda....
I'm also coming from two wheels to three (vertigo). I do find the lack of power steering to be a bit unnerving, but at the same time, it's not like the motorcycle is just gonna suddenly veer way off center. I've been paying a bit more attention to my car at expressway speed and notice that it too does sway. It just takes getting used to. Quality of roads makes a big difference as well. Florida's roads are FAR better than Ohio's.
thanks for the content dude!
I have a good experience so far, like any bike/trike I just make sure I am not tired before I travel, take it easy and take regular breaks particularly if traveling long distance. Totally agree a windshield makes a big difference.
100%! Stay safe and enjoy!
I have to agree with you. I think since the ryker is a majority of 1st bike owners including myself the freeway can be a little scary at 1st but once you get familiar with your bike and the roads you'll feel more comfortable...I started out going to work on mine hitting the freeway now I hate taking the scenic route...my 900 handles very well on the freeway but I must admit I get a lil jelly when 2s fly by me as if I'm standing still🤦🏽♀️ but I still love my ryker
Thanks live in Clermont fl thinking on getting a ryker knowledgeable vid
After riding motorcycles for 45 plus years, I can say that the Ryker does feel a bit darty at higher speeds especially when there is wind involved. But as you talked about in your video, you get used to it after a while. It's part of the trike's personality and, once you've learned how to control it, adds to the overall experience. I love it. It's so much fun to ride. Honestly, more fun than any motorcycle I've ever ridden. And the attention it attracts is a bonus. Mouth open "What is that?! It's so cool!" from total strangers is a regular thing. Good topic to address. You did a fine job.
Thanks for that insight! I always appreciate seeing different viewpoints, especially ones from seasoned riders. I also have a great time riding my Ryker on the highway. It has its own unique characteristics and that makes for a special ride. Thanks for watching!
Great information, thank you
God what a lovely view to be riding into. Very envious LOL
Thanks for the video. You do a great job producing your content. I dont have a problem with highway riding, but I prefer road riding. The Ryker is for sure not a touring bike. So you have to fight with it a bit while your on the highway in my opinion.
WeaverWrestler thanks for the production compliment! I try to get better with every video. Thanks for watching it!
The Ryker definitely isn’t a touring bike, but I do think we place too much weight on that term nowadays. People have been doing tours on bikes with many less creature comforts than even the Ryker for years on end. I personally don’t find myself fighting with the Ryker on the highway, but I’ve felt that way on a day with winds 20+mph. So I get that it’s a valid complaint, I just don’t feel that is true for me on a daily basis.
Thank you for the review. My wife and I are debating purchasing the ryker vs a spyder. I like the versatility of the rally.
I just got a ryker
It’s like anything, it takes a little time to get used to how it handles. I used to own a RT Limited and it was definitely a learning curve at first. 6 years later I I now own a ryker rally and again it’s taking time to get used to it. It does handle differently than the RT for sure but still a fun ride!
Interesting video.
I ride my Ryker on the interstate about 4 times each about an hour ride I love it. It is fun. It is really stable do not have a lot of balancing around.
guapomob14 mine feels dialed in out there, but some folks have had a different experience. Thanks for watching!
Excellent video
So i am a 55 year old female. Just bought the F3 and loving it! I almost bought the ryker, but went ahead and spent the extra.
Anyway, i am not used to highway speeds. All of my experience is dirt bikes riding. So i was struggling to get the confidence to push highway speeds. Suffice to say that this video has helped me emensly. I mean i am still on my couch right now 😂😂 but feel like my next ride will be more relaxing 😊
Thx for the vid !!!
Great presentation
Thank you!
I just brought mine home from the dealer on the highway in heavy rain and I had no problem staying at 65/70 mph. I have the 900, this is awesome! just love it.
mine was all over the place driving 100 miles home from the dealer..im getting end links..that will APPARENTLY help.
Excellent video, would love to see sport bike power come into these machines
bro you haved answered my questions… the 900 it is 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I notice the highways I'm Florida seems to be in good shape. The highway in my area have potholes, bumps and crazy drivers, but I'm gonna give it a try
Mister P I take the roads down here for granted, they do a pretty good job keeping them well maintained. Ride safe and enjoy yourself wherever you choose to ride!
Thanks for the video. I am thinking about getting one and riding for about 30-40 mins on a busy highway is part of my daily commute. Good to know it's all good at around 80-85mph, as that is the traffic speeds around here.
Thanks for watching! In my latest video I talk about the Sway Bar End Link upgrade and while I don't think it's earth-shattering, for someone like you with a daily highway commute, it's a no brainier upgrade for only $80.
@@3WheelKhalil Similar situation I live in west palm and work in pompano so about same distance. I was wondering how much to fill the tank and how often would I have to fill it in a week
YOUR VIDEOS AND COMMENTARY MAKES ME WANT IT EVEN MORE IT SEEMS LIKE SO MUCH SAFER FUN THAN 2 WHEELS WHICH I HAD BACK IN 2004, I REALLY VALUE YOUR AND OTHERS OPNION AS A POTENTIAL BUYER, YOU RIDERS ROCK, MUCH APPRECIATED AND FEEL FREE TO OFFER ME YOUR INSIGHTS THANKS AGAIN AND HAPPY,SAFE RIDING
Really enjoy your videos. I just wish you make more of them like installing accessories on your bike. Do you have any stories of people wanting to see your bike or even trying to get on it without your permission?? I feel that this bike people would actually dare to do that.
Thanks for watching the content, I'll definitely keep that in mind for the future. I haven't really done many mods that I felt were worth sharing, but I do have some interesting plans for upcoming mods.
And actually I had a young lady in my neighborhood flag me down, just to ask if she could ride it! Not ride with me mind you, she asked to take it for a spin around the block!
Good video. Good information. Question? Why don't you have a windshield?
Show, man!
I agree with you. The 600's are not for highway use. If you want to go longer distances and use the highway the 900's are the way to go. Also windscreens are key. I put a slightly taller one on my Spyder and it made a huge difference.
Blackphoenix Entertainment after riding the RT with the windshield all the way up and also all the way down a few weeks back, I definitely can say it makes a huge difference. I’m still not sold on the looks of a Ryker with a windshield though. Most of them look like an afterthought to me. So for now, I’m just letting my head bobble in the breeze!
I live in florida all i ride is highways no problem sooo use to it!
Its great im 71 yr young female i have the 200 scorpion
I maxed mine out on the freeway and an 18wheeler wind gust gave me a speed boost when I passed it up topped 106 on my 2020 rally
Sometimes ya just gotta send it! Ride safe!
I really want one of these. Im just so tall I need to test drive it or find accesorries to make it bigger for me
Great content, how do you prevent from getting blown off the bike with high winds or sharp turns? Is there a seat belt ?
I live and work in Key Largo and am thinking about getting the 600. The speed limits here never pass 50 and there isn’t much traffic
S J I think it would be more than enough. I’ve ridden the 600 and really enjoyed it. The 900 just has the extra top end and more chances to break the back end loose.
Dude! Which Cam are you using? Rhe pictures are amazing!
the trick is to relax your grip, relax your shoulders.What I'm looking for is a long term review. 80,000 miles or more. are they dependable
I haven't bought mine yet but, am so looking forward to that experience! Stay bless 👊
You too! Good things come to those who wait!
Aye man nice vid. What kind of gloves do you use?
Thanks for watching and I wear the Icon Anthem 2 CE gloves. Not the most protective, but they breathe well and are super comfortable.
I want to get me one sooo bad, i live out in the country so I'd just be cruising my long country roads, the thought of that seems like so much fun....I'm actually a new driver at age 40 something lol, so I'm just getting use to handling a vehicle but this thing looks like it's alot of fun to ride
Country roads would be great on a Ryker. When the time comes, take the 3 wheel riding training course. It’s a great intro to riding and safety, but also a great way to know if you’re really going to enjoy riding. Thanks for watching!
@3WheelKhalil ok cool i will do jusrlt that thanks bro😊, but I'm seriously wanting the spyder f3-S, I've been watching your vids on that model and other ride reviews and I'm liking everything about that model over the Ryker honestly
Rode out to Route 1 Motor Sports in my old neck of the woods
Thanks Khalil, appreciate your comments and content. Do you think you'll get a windshield? That is high on my list of items to acquire when I make my purchase. Also not sure if I missed you saying it, but how does it absorb the bad spots in the road? Rte 95 can have some nasty potholes and bad pavement. Wondering your opinion on the suspension and shocks for the Ryker. Thanks sir!
So I actually have a windshield on right now that Can-Am sent me for a video. If you're taller make sure to get the new adventure windshield or aftermarket larger one.
The Rally shocks are a great starting point. Most will need nothing more, I myself plan to upgrade to Elka in the near future.
Every bike, two or three wheeled, first time, it takes a few trips to settle in.
I just move to Florida hope to get one one day I take I4 to work how good is it on gas ? and is there speed limit on highways ?
I don't own a ryker or any motorcycle. I'm a small person an not that strong, but when I seen a ryker It gave me the idea maybe I can ride. My question is, since it doesn't have power steering an it has two wheels up front.. how much force does it take to steer? I'm not very strong, an I'm curious if it takes alot to do turns.. or if I'd get worn out fast.
Great video! A quick off topic question if it's ok? Is that the roll down dry bag & top case together & if so how do you find the use of that combo together? Thanks kindly as I was just looking at both items separately rather than the thought of using together...
FaceFabLLC I love my top case. It’s the LinQ SR21 Tunnel Bag. It has a bigger opening than the standard Ryker top case and I think it is just larger in general. Only drawback is that it not lockable, but that wasn’t necessary for my uses. I often pick up dinner for two or a small load of groceries no sweat with this setup.
As for waterproofing, I’ve ridden in pouring rain and it kept things inside of it very dry. I’m all about versatility, so I also have a dry bag and cargo net that I use if I have my passenger seat installed for a particular reason.
Thanks for watching!
@@3WheelKhalil PERFECT. You responded in kind to the use that would be of my similar preference. I really appreciate it & keep doing what you do, great thoughtful content that's succinct, thorough & chill. Many Thanks!
Bro you think a visor is a must or can you ride with out it?
Can you Cruz it around 75mph for a long period of time and does it wind real loud at that speed ??
Good video , I’m looking into transitioning out of two wheels and into three and the ryker has always caught my eye .. so my question is would I be able to road trip on the ryker ? I like getting lost and riding for hours so in your opinion can the ryker handle this reliably? I ask about the ryker cause the spyders are bigger in size then what I want .. any thoughts would be helpful …
My Ryker has been super reliable. Just have to have right expectations. It's a really raw stripped down bike. If you're looking for more comfort, you may be better off going up the line to an F3.
planing to buy one! 600 or 900>>
Both great options. I always recommend taking the class first, that way you experience the bikes a little bit before you purchase. Hope you enjoy it!
Is it true these bikes have an issue on rust built up pretty fast on some steal parts?
Link to the mirrors you put on it?
I have a cherry F150 with 106000 miles and a 2020 Suzuki king quad 400 With150miles on it with trailer. do you think i could trade for a 2020 Ryker 900
The interstate near me (I-25) is grooved, similar to an airport runway. I avoid it at all costs, as the Ryker (even my car) is constantly shifting due to those grooves. :(
I definitely get that, I’ve felt that style of road out there. When I was there a couple of years ago, it was not confidence inspiring in the little crossover SUV I rented. But you’ve got beautiful mountain roads and vistas that more than make up for it 😄
@@3WheelKhalil Yes Sir! 99% of my riding is city/back roads into the mountains :) Now that I have my bags setup, I can't wait to get some drone footage this riding season. Great vlog, as always!!!
When riding on grooved roads, it is best to keep your hands loose on the grips. It makes it a much easier ride.
@@rykerparkingonly7441 Interesting! Thanks a ton for the tip!!!
What helmet do you use?
ALSO, what mic are you using in your videos?
Thanks
Mark Page I use a Bell SRT helmet. I’m a big fan. It’s super snug but also very comfortable for me.
And I use a mix of audio equipment, I plan on doing a video on it in the future. Stay tuned for that one! Thanks for watching!
Would like to kno what city are u in Florida be cuz I’m in Mia NBC d I haven’t seen any rykers in my area Nd would like to kno do u wanna link up Nd ride I have the 900 rally
Great video. Does the windshield really make a huge difference when your riding on the highway?
Thanks for watching! It definitely makes a big difference. That wind buffeting can really push your chest and head around. Some helmets are better at dealing with the wind than others. I like the stripped down look better though, so I'd rather learn to deal with the wind.
YES the windshield makes a huge difference on wind reduction & feeling more stable. Im a new rider but l am getting experience each time l push myself out a little further.
none
Hi great video! How's the passing power at high speed on the 900?
Plenty of power to pass and thanks!
What about avoiding obstacles at that speed
Check out this helmet Jarvis X-AR it is like the Iron Man helmet but in real life minus the weapon system.
Is your ryker stable ? Are there any vibration problems at high speeds? I’ve heard people have problems with the steering or feeling a bit unstable on the ryker at high speeds.
YES! end link replacement apparently helps,, not too difficult
Is that the daniel rd. Target?
Nice videos, Im in Miami and I have a 2020 Rally, you're correct it takes a little getting used to on the highway. But once you're use to it its not a bad ride. Miami is the Autobahn at the moment fun rides!
Michael Hudson Thanks for watching! I’d be lying if I said I haven’t been taking advantage of the less trafficked highways right now. Ride safe!
Do you suggest getting one even if im a beginner? Like i never rode a bike before. Great vid also
It’s actually really good for beginners.
I'm 66. I've had mine about a month. I had never ridden either. Take the three wheel course through Can-Am and get one and get out there.
I'm in my 40s with some back and nerve issues. Had never been on a bike. Jumped on the highway at 75 mph day one on my 900 Rally and had a blast.
@@joshk791 I want one of these so bad. I've been a rider for years but got rid of my last bike because I didn't ride it enough because I started getting back problems. I want something I can just open the garage door and take off.
@@dthompsont3796 full transparency, my back does start to hurt a bit after a few hours on long rides with the stock seat if I don't get off and stretch often. But less than 2 or 3 hours and I'm fine. I still love this thing.
HEY MAN GREAT VIDEOS, I’LL MOSTLY ME IN THE CITY AND LOCAL HWY DRIVING BUTI MAY WANT TO DRIVE TO ALT,GA. DO YOU THINK THE 600 WILL BE GOOD ENOUGH FOR A 2-3 HOUR HWY DRIVE, ALSO I’M CONCERNED ABOUT POT HOLES AND BAD CITY STREETS. DO YOU THINK THE 600 BEING LOWER TO THE GROUND WILL BE A PROBLEM BECAUSE FROM WHAT I SAW THE 900 IS A LITTLE HIGHER OFF THE GROUND, THATS MY MAIN ISSUE ABOUT THE 600, I WOULD HATE THE RISK DAMAGING MY NEW RYKER. CAN YOU SHARE YOUR OPNION WITH ME ON THE 2-3 HOUR DRIVE AND THE LOW TO THE GROUND ISSUES, I’M ABOUT TO PURCHASE ONE IN A FEW WEEKS, PLEASE ADVISE AND THANKS. HAPPY,SAFE RIDING MAN
Being from the A myself, I would probaly want a little more power when riding into the city, cause you know it's either gridlock traffic or a race track out there. The 600 can definitely reach the highway speeds, but you may feel like you're at the top of the power at all times when highway riding at 80+ MPH. A used 900 would be the sweet spot in my opinion.
@@3WheelKhalil hey man thanks for replying back i did get the 900 on Thursday 8/20 and have been riding every since, lol I'm really really enjoying it, so easy to drive and get acquainted with, it's what i call Ryker friendly, it's a safe feeling fun enjoyable ride man, Happy, Safe Riding To All
What is the range?
Hey this is off topic but which quad lock is that? 😂
Do you have any experience riding the Ryker through any twisties? They don't seem to lean much, if at all, and was wondering how much work from the body is needed to work through turns on winding/canyon roads.
You gotta clinch those knees and kind of lean it the opposite direction of the turn, which is different than riding a two wheeler.
Travis Villalva While it is more work than leaning a 2 wheel motorcycle into the corners, I’ve heard many riders who live in the mountains say that twisties are actually a place where the Ryker is the most fun. On a small scale, I’ve felt that. There is a road near me with two quick back to back corners like a snake, and I always have a blast maneuvering through it. I honestly wished I lived closer to some nice windy roads. Thanks for watching!
Agreed! I've ridden about 3,000 miles so far, based in Utah and mostly do canyon and mountain driving. Its a blast in the canyons, performs really well in that 30 to 60 mph range. If you are on a really twisty road then it can get a little tiring since there isn't power steering, but overall not too bad.
I used to ride a HD and the vibration through the hand grips caused my hands to tingle and loose sensation. IS the Ryker similar? Do you have trouble with your hands falling asleep?
No sir not at all, however I do have aftermarket Pro Taper Pillow Top grips. Made for dirt bikes so it minimizes any vibrations regardless.
That sounds like something I might look into. Have carpal tunnel in both hands...
R U using a 600cc? Or 900cc
Is the gas grip spring loaded ? Can you get the ryker with cruise control , can you get different handlebars ?
Yes, it is spring loaded, the throttle reset is pretty positive. The Ryker is really not designed as a touring bike and therefore no cruise control. You are able to buy some different handlebars if you so desire.
Biggest reason why I want to sell my Ryker now. The swaying is way too much. Gust of wind almost pushed me into a car going +70mph. All Rykers are not built the same. Everyone needs to understand this. Just because yours is working perfectly fine doesn't mean everyone else's is. Respectfully
It may be worth getting your Ryker checked out before you let it go. Also keep in mind your riding ergonomics. If your arms are set too straight/stiff you won’t be able to handle the motorcycle smoothly in situations like that. It sucks that you are experiencing that level of instability, stay safe out there.
Is there any sort of back support available for the Rykers?
There are some backrests out there. A small OEM one from Can-Am and then some different options from SlingMods.
New Ryker rider gal here. Quick question I can't find an answer to.... When cornering with a Ryker, is there a need to lean into it like when riding a 2-wheel cycle?
Welcome to the fam! It's definitely not as much of a requirement as it with riding a 2-wheel motorcycle. However, I feel more controlled when cornering if I lean my torso and shoulders.
How does the Ryker handle with potholes and uneven pavement?
XanfireX1 potholes don’t send me flying in one direction or another, but it’s not the nicest feeling in the world. As with any other reverse trike, potholes can be hard to avoid, but there is a trick to missing them. Takes practice. Uneven pavement can make the Ryker wonder a bit, but it makes my hatchback wonder a bit too. Just something I would hop into another lane to avoid.
Hey Khalil did you used to have the spider.
Nope, I've ridden many models, but have only owned my Ryker.
I have a 2021 Ryker Rally. The first time ever I took it on the highway over just over 60MPH and with just under 600 miles on the machine I experienced at catastrophic failure of the rear differential whereby the oil seal failed and leaked out all over the place. Now stranded, I called the BRP toll free road service. The flat deck came and picked up the machine but not me. Still stranded to find my own ride, not impressed.
The machine is fine around town but the CVT transmission is way too loud/buzzy at higher speeds and steering becomes flighty. Knowing what I know now I wouldn't have purchased this product.
I normally ride closer to the edges of the lane and I find it to track well.
Terrell Murray good tip/insight, thanks!
My 600 does good on the Highway
Did you just ride over PGA bridge?? You're right by me!
Yup, you know it. Do you ride in the area?
3-Wheel Khalil yep I live in Palm Beach Shores on Singer Island!
Can 2 fit on the ryker.
I'm undecided on the F3 or the Ryker
bigg june If going 2up is your main objective, I’d say go for an F3 or F3T if possible. If you plan to ride by yourself 75% of the time but you’d like to have your spouse with you occasionally, the Ryker will handle you just fine.
@@3WheelKhalil by myself 80-90% of the time I will be riding alone.
Really want it to commuto to work.
40 miles round trip.
Thanks. Love ur channel. New subscriber
@@3WheelKhalil just purchased the ryker rally. Will be delivered by 5/24/20
@@biggjune2914 how do you like your Ryker? 600 or 900?
@@smkymtnguy33 I got the 900. I really like it when its working lol.
1st day I got it. Drove it for 5 minutes then the VSS FAULT comes on.
Took 2 days to fix sensor was bad 👎
Drove for 5 days now VSS FAULT is showing again. Smh
Looks like bike is bouncing around a lot or your video camera is ?
Camera is mounted to my helmet and you get a lot of wind buffeting at high way speeds with no windshield. Doesn't really bother me, but it can make your head bobble around a bit.
How far can your Ryker get on a full tank? It's a cool looking ride, would be great for my wife.
Depends on the type of riding, highway riding definitely kills the mpg. Around 90 miles out of a tank if riding 75+ MPH. I get about 115 miles out of a tank around town, but I do some spirited driving from time to time. Thanks for watching!
I easily get about 140 to 150 miles per tank.
Why is mine all over the place on the highway? It’s 1 week old but I feel like I’m going to lose control. Is it just my paranoia? First motorcycle of ANY type
It could be a little bit of that, make sure you aren’t holding on to tight or stiffly. Relaxing your grip is proper ergonomics.
@@3WheelKhalil end links maybe..
@@sjustice5254 they help a little but I was very comfortable on at highway speeds prior to adding the end links.
How do you like the Quad lock?
Gabe Joshua I’m probably going to put a video out about it this weekend. I like to test things for a while before I recommend them. The quad lock is awesome though. Wouldn’t use any other setup after having this one. Out of the way when I’m not using it and 100% secure when I am using it. That simple.
3-Wheel Khalil thank you. Would love to watch that video on it and the set and different color tab! Thanks
