Thanks, I like to keep things nice and simple, just like riding fast and hard and enjoying being out in the air. Hope you enjoy your Ryker when it arrives and find some nice roads to ride in Germany 😊👍

Lol 😂 yep was pretty tough on the rear end on that bit of road, the Ryker not well suited to those sort of nasty bumps and holes 😊

Thanks 😊, yep that particular road is a lot of fun on the Ryker👍.You'll find heaps of folks blasting up and down this particular section on 2, 3 or 4 wheels as it's so smooth with great turns.

It was from the Earthquakes I believe, to repair the road was apparently not in the budget as the cost was pretty extreme. 😊

🤣🤣

Thanks Sis 😊

Your welcome, I think the initial buying and riding when first owning can be a bit clouded by the euphoria of joy lol 😂 I'll try to keep it honest and upfront with my thoughts on the bike in the future but over a year and still open the garage every day and love it that it's mine to enjoy 😊

That's really cool, just make sure ( depending on what your youtube goals are)that you don't stop enjoying the actual ride. I keep my filming super uncomplicated so the ride and the fun of it comes first and the filming is secondary, I do this as much for myself to have my rides documented for me as much as for everyone else who wishes to subscribe and like or comment, but I'm really happy that it has given you that inspiration, ride safe 😊

Glad you enjoyed it 😊👍

Yep agree on overpriced accessories, shipping and exchange rates make it very expensive to get gear here to NZ. My warranty finishes in 2025 so I'll also be doing alot of the maintenance myself. 😊

It's not the rally version it's the Ryker 900 Sport 😊

Here in NZ we are in kph, so nope it definitely can't do 140mph, pity tho 😁

I haven't had any problems with this as yet, hopefully never 😊

You are correct, a small bit of my favourite piece of road just out of Christchurch, some nice bends and straights and of course scenery 😊

How did you push it to 130? I'm curious. Plz share. Ty.

It's only 130kph so easy to reach that speed 😊

Rykers run a shaft drive, I know what you mean with shingle etc and belt drive (its worst enemy). Wasn't shingle so much just so damn bumpy which can beat you up a bit.

As budget and finances allow I will certainly look at further setups, so will look at maybe the insta360°camera when I do to record many more angles. 😊

A fair bit, very similar to a quadbike, obviously depends on how quick you are traveling but if it's a left turn you lean left and push on the right footage and opposite for right hand bend 😊

Thanks, yep you can't get tired riding the hills surrounded by awesome scenery 👍😊

To be fair we share the roads so I know ya just gotta be patient. It can be frustrating though lol I can't lie 😅 On the ticket subject more luck I think that nothing on this bike, fingers crossed 🤞

It's $109 a year to rego, they class it under car registration, annoyingly my insurance company treats it as a motorcycle, go figure 😕

Yep was probably us 😊, if ya see us again come say hi as always nice to chat to fellow riders. RT Spyder sounds nice, they are such a lovely cruising machine to explore our countryside 👍

Yeah good old NZ roads aren't exactly smooth lol 😅

Lol yep it happens pretty quick, good chance I would've parted ways with my bike if he'd hit me as it was not a small bird 😮

It certainly is and great scenery as well, you can't beat it 😊

On smooth roads like this motorway it's fine, bumpy roads etc it can move around a fair bit. The steering damper is something I've thought about fitting but just haven't committed to that yet, I'm kind of used to the Ryker handling etc. Foot pegs are pulled right back as I find that position gives me more of a feeling of control in the twisties, just my preference. 😊

If I make changes will definitely be going down this road, thanks 😊

Yep had a blast, as you say any day to get out and twist the throttle is a great day 😊

The handling can be squirrely and jittery, can be solved with the aftermarket steering damper, as I said many thought it should have been a factory fitment, though to keep costs down its a fairly basic machine. 😊😊😊

I have a 23 Sport. If you get one get the sport or the rally as the upgraded suspension improves the handling. Only thing I added was the slingmods end links. Mine doesn't feel squirrely at all on the highway going 80+. Now the suspension could be better as far as handling bumps and rough roads though.

Yep I heard end links and better sway bar makes a huge difference, mines also a 23 sport but I think to be fair it's less the bike and more our New Zealand back roads, rough and bumpy!!!!! 😊

​@@-champ-4727set all springs to level 4 and it will handle better. The damper level depends on your weight honestly

I'm a big guy @ 6ft 220 lbs. Center of gravity is off a bit due to my weight. I've learned to throw my weight around in turns and tbh I don't have any issues at 50mph through a turn on my 2020 Rally. It's so much fun. If you have enough strength in your arms and shoulders, you won't even notice the lack of power steering. I have experience on a Spyder and it's just not the same fun experience. The Ryker feels a lot more sporty to me. I'll eventually own a Spyder for touring, but the Ryker will always remain in the garage.

No problem, I release the throttle coming into curves, slight touch of brakes, if left curve I'm leaning to left, hugging with left knee and pushing on right foot peg, do oppposite with right curves, usually feed the power on when exiting, hope that explains ok 😊

Your welcome 😊

Yep I agree,looking at a media mod and helmet mic in near future 😊

It certainly is, great weather and awesome views 😊

Lol yep different countries different sides of road we drive on 🤣.

I hope so too!

Yes it was! 😊
