Great mpg! If you reserch You Tube about the vibration, people are putting a piece of foam underneath that panel to stop the noise. You definitely need to get that steering looseness checked out at the dealer. Very nice review!
I look forward to seeing them out. You would be surprised at how many people we meet while we on our Spyders that go crazy and ask what is it ? Who makes it ? Can Am needs to advertise more. We really like em . Be safe and enjoy the ride.
I found a 3D printer and start to make my own panels and accessories. a good 3D printer is @ $300 average Ryker accessories is the same price +- .saved me thousands literally and tell every Ryker owner they should do the same. Can am are way over priced. Please tell every Ryker owner you know to do the same and save lots of money that could be used to pay bills and really enjoy your Ryker at these hard financial times (covid-19).got me 2020 Ryker 600 does same thing, has a screw on top that needs to be tightened at least once every 20 mi or so, can am said no way to fix problem. Said to keep doing it @every 20 to 75 mi or when loose. Thanks for the video, reason I bought mine, your honest review.
Sean Smoaks just did a video where he was talking about how you remove the Handlebar assembly at the top, and there was a set screw that is supposed to tighten the whole thing down, with a specific torque value. I imagine the reason yours can be lifted like that is simply that that screw is not properly tightened.
Have you ever looked at RAM MOUNTS? YOU CAN MOUNT A CUP HOLDER THAT WILL FLOAT YOUR CUP ABOVE THE BODY, I HAVE A 2008 GS Spyder, a 2014 STS , and now a 2019 Ryker Rally900 RAM MOUNTS are the cats meow
"Clunk" on start-up seems normal. If you apply slight throttle to engage drive with brake applied at stand-still, then release brake and apply throttle simultaneously, no "clunk"!
Hey Paul -Cool videos on your new Ryker. I understand you are in Lynchburg. I live in Bedford. My wife and I both actually own the Can Am Spyders. She has her own and I have mine. Really enjoy them. Took me forever to figure out how to comment on the videos. Don
Pauls.Adventure As far as getting good service after the sale. That is the Big issue that we have ran into since getting the bikes. I have gotten a lift made by J&S Jacks (awesome quality made)and have started doing what I can on my now. Done oil change in my RTS. I have new brake rotors and pads and Baja Ron sway bar that I’m getting ready to install myself. Also getting ready to change oil and filters in the wife’s STS. We have not had good experiences with local service . This has been a big issue for us.
Donald Krantz mine as well at only 300 miles. I threw a wheel weight or it was never balanced and to find someone to do it that does not want the bike for two weeks is a joke.
Donald Krantz I purchased mine from Star City in Roanoke but that’s two hours which I will probably do this week. Hope to see you guys on the road some day.
@@Jeep-Addicts Hi Paul, when i took it yesterday from dealer there was no play but after drove it around 170km and in morning i checked i have play too did you check with dealer what he said
I know this video is a few months old now but if you are still looking for a way to have your coffee check out Lamonster garage they got some nice handlebar mount cup holders
You need to contact Shawn Smoaks here on UA-cam... he is a mechanic for CanAm and will give you a straight answer. The Dealer will most likely say YUP normal.

I have exactly the same kind of fueler on my 2019 Jeep Cherokee and it's actually really cool. There is a second gate further in that has to be opened by the gas pump fueler in order for the fuel to go into the tank. So, even if water got in there, it would just run out of a waste gate. There is a funnel type thing on the right side under the panel in case you need to fuel from a gas can. My Jeep has the same thing. So, they're actually quite secure....and nearly impossible to siphon from.
Check out this video and can you tell the viewers if this dealership fees are ridiculous! I think the $699 and $1500 fees are insane. ua-cam.com/video/35NhNnRRh6s/v-deo.html How is the bike in the rain to ride? Thanks
there is no real reason they didn't make brackets to take another bag other being to tight to have another mould made for the inside of the bag or take the time like you to cad a design up its very poor of BRP. no bike has ever been sold with only one side bag it looks so silly. BMW changed the inside of there bags on the gs so it fitted around the exhaust other bike makers manage to accommodate two so should BRP. They are also missing a chance to charge you more to get the extra bag very short sighted.
Scott Summers it’s a frame like a snowmobile or a four wheel with plastic to cover it and the motor. Sport bikes have all plastic also but not as much.

I'm picking up a new F3-S on Monday. Really looking forward to it.
I'd consider one, but a huge turn off is the proprietary tool to remove the tires that just any old dealer/place won't have sitting around.

I hear that clunk too. Its probably the worst of the whole bike! Cars next to me can hear that
carlos Torres a viewer gave me a hint to hold the brake and give it just slight gas and it doesn’t happen. 👍

How is the weather protection? That tiny little windscreen and large gap between the body and the screen, does the screen do any good?
R Russell it blocks your main core from wind and for the most part and really helps with rain. I do recommend one.
