- It's not a motorcycle, it's similar to a sports car, but it's not that either. In this video I walk you through the features and design details that make the Can Am Ryker Rally so unique (and awesome!) Want to check this out in person?

I am a BRP certified 3WMC trainer and taught Spyder riding for years. I tried some of the first Rykers when they cam out. For me, coming from a motorcycle background, I much preferred the Ryker. I love the instantly adjustable foot rests and handle bars as I may not always ride in the same position. I like the CVT transmission and the power transfer to the real wheel. On a Spyder, if your battery goes dead when the parking brake is on, you are frozen there until you get a jump. On the Ryker, the parking brake is manual so if you don't have battery power, you can push it out of the way if you need to. The Spyder is nice for two up long distance touring. With the Ryker, I feel more in touch with the road and have the sense of really riding the vehicle.
I have the 2019 rally, 5 yrs now and 24000 miles on it…. Loads of customizing and lots of off-roading in the country, and with saddle bags on it everything is waterproof….. lots of highway riding and loving every bit of it…. I am fully disabled and this bike is perfect for my lifestyle even though I am no longer on 2 wheels…
Awesome. Thanks for sharing!
Great review.
I like how everything is Pointed out explained answering questions before you ask.
That really looks fun! The twin front wheels give the stability, and it looks as though it's balanced like a mid-engine sports car... the engine weight is well back, but I guess also good balanced grip.
This thing is super cool!
This thing is super cool!
Very nice reviews. The ride/road feel is rough on the standard models. Your hands will get tired/numb. My advice would be to go with the rally. It has the upgraded shocks. I would also recommend to add a set of foam grip slide-ons and baja rons sway bar and links for a smoother ride. Upgrading the shocks on the standard model, like Elkas, is expensive but worth it.
the footstep, i love it.... hope can buy it....
to echo words u may have heard before, u know your stuff sir. I am thinking of buying one of these and this vid got me closer to going through with that thought. thank u sir!
Awesome! Thanks for watching!
Nice review
Thanks for your video. I just took the 3wheel training and got my endorsement. I want the Ryker Rally but the first thing I’ll be doing is changing those white rims.
Haha! My wife doesn't like these wheels either. They're trying to emulate rally cars, but I can see how they're polarizing. Thanks for watching!
Hi I have just deposited a hold on a 23 Ryker sport let me know if you have a review on this
Very informative video. I'm picking up a new Ryker Rally for my wife's birthday on December 18th. She's a beginner, so I figured it's the best route to go. You forgot to mention that the Ryker Rally also has ABS and stability control. Don't ask me how stability control works on it, but I assume it's probably operates the same on an automobile, utilizing the ABS system.
Yes! ABS and stability control are standard. The stability control can brake individual wheels to help the rider keep all three wheels on the ground and in control. No electronic system can make up for certain rider errors, but in emergency manoeuvres or sport riding, they can definitely help keep things in line.
Nice video. Can u recommend a site to order panels? Acanthus to change color
I would connect with your local dealer for that.
Nice Can Am review, thanks. I wave to these while riding my motocycle and see them often. What's the fuel range on a vehicle like this I wonder from a full tank to near empty? Are the tires easy to change? I change my own tires on my bikes.
I'll have to look into some of those things. I know the wheels don't have traditional lug nuts, so I know they're different, but I wouldn't think they're difficult to remove.
@@PeterLoweOne Thanks Peter. General Fuel range on each new bike is great when possible. Keep up the great, detailed, excellent reviews! Thank you. Very cool to learn about new motorcycles thanks to your information and reviews.
@@BlackArroToons Range I'd very difficult to be consistent with over the variety of vehicles that I review. It can vary on riding styles, rider weight etc. The best thing to do for some of these vehicles is to find online owner's forums or Facebook pages to see the range that real world users are getting. That will give you a more accurate picture than my math or guesstimates.
@@PeterLoweOne I understand. That's true, plus the manufacturer's website's are good sources of all the stats and fuel tank size too. Keep up the great reviews! Thanks.
Hello Peter, a Can-Am Spider review? Difference between Riker and Spider. Thanks 😊
I'll be getting a Spyder soon. Once I review that, I'll do a second review comparing them both. Love your idea! We're definitely on the same page!
It is a motorcycle. It's isn't a motorbike. It's a motortrike. I have four motorbikes and one Can-Am: the F3-S.
I think most people will allow me the loose translation for the purposes of this video.
@@PeterLoweOne I didn't mean it to sound like a criticism. I'd love a Ryker Rally as well as my F3-S. Not enough space or money for all my machines plus another, though.
Any vehicle that has "handlebars" is considered a motorcycle.
How do you like f3s
Nice video Peter.
Front storage - known as the "frunk" ("front trunk", in the Spyder/Ryker community. It is 7L. For info, the Spyder RT Limited has 177 L! storage).
Foot pegs - lift them up & you can move them forward and aft to suit your height. The brake pedal on the right moves with the pegs.
Handlebars - adjust forward and back also.
Fuel Tank Location - slide the cover just below the dash on the top of the tank, rearward, and you will see the filler cap (20L capacity).
Transmission: CVT
I do not know about New Brunswick (used to live there), but in Ontario, you do NOT need a 2 wheeled motorcycle licence to ride it - you can get a 3-wheeled Spyder/Ryker licence to ride it, if you do not want to get a 2-wheeled motorcycle licence.
You can get your Spyder/Ryker-specific licence, by taking a one day on the lot course (in addition to the 1 x 3 hour lecture in class) - you get an M2M licence at at the end of the on the lot training day if you pass the test (does not allow you to ride 2-wheeled motorcycles). In Ontario, if you already have your 2-wheeled motorcycle licence, you do not need to get a Spyder/Ryker licence, you are all set (however it is recommended to take the 1 day course anyhow). Nice video as always.
Thanks for this! Some of this I learned today. I'll be back tomorrow to film the Sport model and will be filming a Spyder soon. The more I look at these things, the more impressed I am with them. They're SUPER cool! Thanks for watching and sharing your experiences!
New Brunswick has a 3 wheeler licence.
Any chance you do a review like this of the spider F3? Also, does the Ryker feel pretty low to the ground? That turns me off because it looks very low and condensed, almost like a kids version. I’ve never ridden a Ryker though, just being a little prejudice, I admit that.
I'll definitely review every road going BRP product that I can. I expect to cover the full line, including riding reviews.
So the Ryker does feel a little lower to the ground, but more like a cruiser motorcycle than a kid's toy. It's hard to describe because it also gives me sports car vibes. It feels athletic, not toy like. It's probably something you should try to sit on and see for yourself. I think if you had it out on the road, you'd probably feel different about it. The sightlines in a dealership are going to feel different than outdoors where you have familiar reference points.
@@PeterLoweOne Great point, thank you. I'm looking forward to seeing the F3 review. I'm starting my research with plans on buying one in the Spring, so I want to be able to buy with my head instead of my eyes. That's a big decision to make an impulse buy, hence the several months of research I'll be doing. Thank you again, I enjoy the thoroughness of your reviews; they're super helpful.
If there were ever a “motorcycle” that should have an electric version, this is it.
I agree. Can Am has announced electric motorcycles, which I'll be reviewing here. There was a rumour of a hybrid Spyder in the past. I think we'll see these in an electric version at some point. With fast charging capability, these would still be capable tourers. The issue I see is that there isn't a lot of space for very large batteries, so these could get quite heavy, and the design may need to change with current battery technologies.
im almost 60 and have been riding bikes basically almost my whole life,due to my work history i suffer from carpel tunnel and tendonitis in my hands and forearms, aka i can ride a sport bike for 20 minutes before my hands go numb, upright naked about an hour 45. So im looking to switch to this style of ride as i hate cars/suv's/ute's due to the fact they literally put me to sleep....(so boring) i start nodding off 30 min into any trip. my question is, can you tweak the rally to be more sport as i would prefer a blend of features as new zealand roads really suck, i get hit with stones constantly and the lumps/bumps/potholes etc are murder on ones rear end.
All it needs is a front wheel brake lever on the handlebars and some real frunk space.
I don't mind the lack of brake lever, it would be nice if it had more frunk storage like the Spyder, but maybe we're getting greedy. These are super cool as is. I really like them.
Just wondering, is a Harley Davidson or a Goldwing with the 3 wheels not a motorcycle now? I'm asking for a friend.
Even Harley's website calls it a trike.
I have the Spyder GS, I want the Rally but my thinks the Rally is too small. Do you know what's the size comparison between the two?
I believe in California Any Trike is a Class C license no M1 Needed.
Hi
you forgot to ride it
Soon!
[ Like ] :)
Looks like a snow mobile and a ride on lawn mower had a baby and that baby rides a hoverboard
So, it's not for you? Ok. Cool.
Sorry a Motorcycle license for Can Am Products is total bs, it’s a trike not a motor cycle! It doesn’t even operate like a motorcycle!
It’s not two wheels, all the skill sets for a motorcycle is for nothing on one of these!
This is total bs! Because the deals sell them, and only offer a 4 Jr intro class which doesn’t give you the The M1 endorsement for Trikes!
I live San Diego, what they have available for training is insane! There isn’t any.
My drivers lics on in San Diego, California so going to another state is totally useless.
Things are different where I film. (Canada)
Sounds like you have a California problem, not a Can Am problem.
California DOES NOT require an M1 to own/drive/ride a Can-Am family 3-wheeler, just a class C. However being retired MSF safety instructor (1980) it is RECOMMENDED.
You don't need an M1 for these in California.
Yikes ..Under Armpit shoes are the most junky shoes ever made, but you pay for the dumb logo
I wake up in the morning, review my notes, double check the research, drive to the store, double check the specifics with the experts at the store, take multiple takes to try to help viewers better understand these machines.
Every day, I realize that there are things that I could have said to be more clear, shots I should have taken to show better information. Wording I could have changed to be more watchable.
Then I take the footage and edit it together to place it on the internet where the world is not kind.
I prepare for all kinds of abuse, and everyday I'm amazed at the kindness of my audience.
*Then this guy can't handle that I wear the wrong brand of shoe.*
What an amazing life you must live to have the luxury to be disgruntled by what a complete stranger puts on his feet.
You need to close the laptop and get outside. Meet some people. Have healthy productive conversations, and re-examine what you can do to contribute to the world, because that comment....it's just not doing it!
I've had a Bourbon and Cola now and feel more positive,...you're reviews are very good actually ....my sincere apology😊
@@richarddevaottien7724 I appreciate you coming back to say that. All good. Thanks for your kind words.
Cheers! 🍻
