You sir are one of the rare people/ salesmen that let the bike your riding do the talking and thank you for doing so.
The great things about CANAM is that they're modular. Meaning that you can buy a base model and then add what you want for rider comfort. All model's have that in one form or another 🙂
thats what a like about the Ryker so much you can make it your own #vincode17
I can't wait I pick mine up saturday 1/ 2021! So excited!!! Have not ridden in several years. But so cool and excited!!!
I got my 2021 Rally 900 in January as well. Congrats.
are you still riding the Ryker? #vincode17
Its even better than I thought it would be!! I love my Rally!! 😍

Had to do a double take on some familiar locations seen in the video. Then read the description and realized I know exactly where you were riding.
Just your friendly neighborhood motovlogger
Thanks for the video. I’m really interested in one. I’m coming to see you guys on my day off for sure!!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
did you get a Ryker? #vincode17
You can adjust the Handlebar AND Pedal quite easily. Can't while driving of course but when stopped it's a matter of pulling a lock bar out, adjusting, and re-locking.
good advice, #vincode17
Awesome video, man! Goin for my riding course this weekend
Your video is so great that I’m really thinking of buying one 🥰
I have a 2021 Can Am Ryker 900 ACE. Absolutely love it! No regrets. Have done many mods which are easy to do! So fun

riding for the season yet #vincode17
Love my 2020 Rally!
Same, that 2022 is looking good too. what do think of the new wheels? #vincode17
The 1978 Yamaha XS models had self cancelling indicators, worked on the distance travelled from the initial movement of the switch.
Great video. Two Notch!!!
Love your intro! My Ryker 2021 is being delivered tomorrow 3/20/21! 🥳🥳🥳
Just brought one today, mines will be delivered next week 💃🏾💃🏾
Hows the year been for you
Congrats man! I’m really hoping I get to be in your shoes some day!
@@esb5822 its been a year since you wrote this comment whats your review on it
Thanku for a trip down memory lane. Two Notch and Decker Blvd were my stomping grounds in the late 90's.
It’s definitely changed since then
Your cam actually made me feel that I am riding it myself. 😂
I could see this being fun on back roads not having to worry about other traffic but it should also come in a smaller 2 stoke CC engine. I'm also curious about the amount of sensors which these days have lots of malfunctions. I heard that steering wears out the arms rather fast.
Awesome intro.. love the bass
you riding one of these Rykers? #vincode17
How is the heat coming from the engine? And is it stable? I test rode a Spyder about 8 years ago and the front end was a bit jittery.
Mines getting setup as I type this. Can't wait to pick her up. Thus purchase was a compromise with the wife to allow me to take her and my little girl riding. Very excited.
which model did you get? #vincode17
@@VinCode17 I had a Ryker 900 Ace. I ended up selling it because the winters suck here and I couldnt ride it as much as I wanted. I have a sports car now but I am looking to get back on a 2 or 3 wheeled bike again soon just dont want to spend 15k for something I might only get to ride 4 months a year.
I enjoy mine. It's basically my go to for my short distances; especially with these gas prices.
How's the reliability? I was thinking about getting one
How much more fuel efficient are these?
How much more fuel efficient is it???
Love my 2021 I only have it for 5mths I have out so much into it now I ran out of stuff to add lol….might get the 2bros exhaust and I’m done well maybe get a custom paint job once the weather get back good again 💯💯💪🏾💪🏾

@@VinCode17 what’s up been a minute but i haven’t yet….actually just stay back riding it! I’m going to order is sometime next week hope all is well your way bro💯💯💯
Good video, but you missed that the foot pegs, steering wheel and brake is easily adjustable, unlike the Spyders. You, also, missed that the Ryker has multiple modes. Rally has Rally mode with barely any traction control. Treal Performance exhaust is nice and not too loud.
He mentions the foot pegs, brakes, steering wheel in the video
I want one for road recommendable ?
How is it when you have to take sharp turns. Do you have to lean with it kinda like a motorcycle? Does the back end wanna slide out if you turn sharply? Just curious
Turning is more like a 4 wheeler. If you give it gas turning it’ll wanna whip out the back end, it’s pretty easy to do. But if you’re just cruising it won’t
More than amazing 😍 wish I will get one some day then carry my birch back seat 🤣do you need to have helmet? Braaap for life lovely bike from tz
Yes

@@MotoTaco 😂😂 good stuff 👍
I want one - great video
did you get a Ryker yet? #vincode17
I'm wanting one but wondering if it's a good fit for me since I'm handicap. Wondering how low the seat it and how smooth it is going over bumps. Also curious as to how well my feet will stay on the pegs going over bumps.
Jason, I'm also disabled (not handicap we don't like to use that word anymore). I've been paralyzed for over 40 years but have been riding a BMW sidecar rig for about 30. This tryke looks rad! Seat height is low-- perfect for wheelchair to bike transfers at 23.5." Auto transmission means no shiftng. All you need is footplates (not pegs) and Velcro straps or snowboard bindings to secure the feet and you're having a blast! Good luck!
@@guykeenan2282 do you have a Ryker? I've met people with wheel chairs that ride these and they love it. #vincode17
They can change the foot brake to hand brake like regular motorcycle you should try it
How fuel efficient are these compared to cars?
I love mine ♥ exactly like this one.
I’ve only had mopeds in the past but people drive crazy here so I felt unsafe and use my car. How’s your experience as a woman? lol
@@isaac198428 so far just a few idiots on the road want to race or follow to closely, but I maneuver pretty good, I had a guy last week follow me and honk and blow kisses, its really crazy it's like a big deal that I am a girl..lol
Is that June deal specific to that dealership or is it available in other States?
I believe it’s any CanAm dealer
"No buttons"
Staring straight forward at 4 on the tach and at least 4 on the handle bars
Are there any motor upgrades to help with the performance? Exhaust?
exhausts now don't really do much for power, just weight and sound. I'm sure someone tunes them but no real upgrades like other bikes have. Most people buy them to cruise and look cool and don't care about power.
Offset - Clout got me here! xD
I think the max speed is set at the factory on the computer. I'm sure a 900cc engine is capable of a lot higher speeds. A lot of bikes and cars are limited to 105. They'll go a lot faster if you disable the limiter.
How do you disable the limiter?
@@terrypatterson9798 It's a hack to the software, probably through the OBD port.
@@terrypatterson9798 im sure someone has a hack for it by now, you can also add a turbo on these now #vincode17

How is it on Gas
hey honda vfr ?? full automatic
Man I want one. I wouldn’t want an actual 2 wheel motorcycle. But I love these Can-Ams. The problem for me is how damned expensive they are, but the Ryker seems to be much cheaper
The Redneck Ram $8600 for the entry level Ryker. Pretty cheap for what you get.
nothing else compares to the Canam's price point for what you get. #vincode17
@@brentdale5730 I agree, #vincode17
Is great looking tryke: be great to have one AWD on/off road version with higher ground clearance. Thanks.
They do have an off road version! More knobby tires and different suspension. Bigger rims too.
@@MotoTaco great, like to see one. My friends have canam and razor quads and they are cool.
I thought a AWD on/off road tyke would be a good option also; tykes can be driven on muddy or even icy roads, bikes can't .
@@1woksape606 hmmm its not THAT off road. just look up the ryker rally
@@1woksape606 Stick some knobbies on the bike and mud/ice ain't a problem anymore. Quads, Trikes, and Bikes are all capable off-road if you build them for it.
This is in miles right?
I live in Columbia I was there yesterday
Drive my dads for the first time a couple days ago. Wanna get me one
man i really want one of these, just dont know where to park it without a garage.
Looking at a 2020 900 for $6500 with 29,000 miles. Is that a good deal?
Miles per gal?
You can get better throttle response and minimize the traction control if you put the 900 into Sport mode. Simply hold the bottom left button on the gauge cluster to engage different modes. Way more fun and easy to get to 100 mph on the highway.
I’ll have to try that out with the rally edition
@@MotoTaco You can do that with the 900 Ace, don't need the Rally but the Rally comes with "Rally Mode" which takes it to a level above Sport. These things really do promote pure joy and laughter, just fun all the way around
Nice beats.
It has independent suspension in the front so does it lean at all in corners or are you upright completely?
Also, nice review. Thank you.
Not a whole lot of lean. It’s like riding a 4wheeler kinda, just stay upright mostly
The front suspension is just like an older rearwheel drive car. It has a swaybar and all.
Super cool! Any idea what the MPG are?
24 miles per gallon
@@bobatwater5912 wow, I thought it would do better. thanks for the info!
@@bettysmith4527 me to that's what one video said. But still pretty cool.
The LCD needs a more tech savy update and the mirrors are not in a optimal position on the
end of the handlebars
agree #vincode17
Test-driven this, whole lot of FUN! Little expensive though. (EU)
Here the 900 starts around 10/11k which is comparable to a new 600 sport bike. So to a lot of buyers its a valid option when buying new.
@@MotoTaco - 15k USD in Sweden where I live, for the 900 rally. It's just a little too expensive imo. It's not on can am though, but import tax and other shit.
Dang. The rally edition here is 12k
@@MotoTaco - Yeah, I got universal healthcare and education instead, haha.
I order mine two weeks ago, they says is 4 to 6 weeks to get it because they don't have any in stock I'm just counting the days thanks for the video
how do you like it so far? #vincode17
@@VinCode17 I love , I just pull it out of the garage yesterday ,and I'm ready to enjoy it 💯
@@slejandrovelazquez2294 💪🔥 nice ride safe.
I’m just curious would you countersteer going fast on a turn?
No because this doesn’t lean. Counter steering inly works if the bike can lean
Looks like a snowmobile for the summer!
Now that you point that out, I bet someone will make a conversion kit for it. I mean they already have conversion kits for ATVs to snowmobiles
Is there a massive difference between this one and the 2021 or 22 model?
I’m not sure
good stuff. My wife wants one, I'm wondering how the 600 runs compared to the 900. What do you think?
there is a noticeable difference between the 2
Honestly most would be fine with the 600. The Ryker isn't great touring and a 60p works great in the city. Although the price difference isn't all that high for the upgrade typically.
@Grea Little hope you got that 900 lol #vincode17
Very lit’l difference, minus top speed, torque and weight. The 600 is Very Capable, unless you want to chirp tires on take off, go speeds over 95 or just have the extra power to say you do.
Do I have to have a motorcycle license for this? I’m 19 and from texas so if so how would I get one?
I think any street legal machine you need a drivers license, but I could be wrong.
@@daedaetinez6406 you don't need a drivers license for a bike, but a motorcycle license, but ya you need a license nonetheless. IDK what texas rules are but here it is just a drivers license needed
Should i get this or the RSS Spyder from 2012 ?
The Ryker is a lot more fun in the city but the RSS will be better on the highway. I'd recommend the Ryker or jumping to a used Spyder RT if you want to 'tour' personally.
Currently trying to decide between ryker and spyder I can't turn for poop on my 2 wheeler
if you want a more fun ride then do ryker. If you plan on traveling a lot on it then do spyder.
I want one!
I’m more of a Spyder kind of guy! Ryker looks interesting but a bit to small for me. My wife likes to ride too so the bigger bike fits us better!
Your wife, depending on both your sizes, can easily ride along.
@@phil9100 we are both trim and fit! Already bought the Spyder! Thanks for the response.
Was that 2 Notch rd?
It was. This bike is at Columbia Powersports on Two Notch Rd
Is it fun in the turn? Can it be drifted?
Lol ya it can whip the back end out pretty easily. Pretty fun to do around the parking lot.
Ok the riding modes, you can change with the two buttons on the display. Left.
Sport mode will change the traction etc. It's a shame you don't know the machine well enough to have known that. However, nice first ride film. I have 19,6k in a year. Love my Rally ❤
I've been looking at buying one of these but I've wondered what happens when you have a FLAT TIRE especially on the back? Is there even a place for a SPARE and all the tools necessary to change the tire? What a weird choice for a lug instead of the standard lug nuts. I would think this machine would be a perfect application for the Michelin Run Flat Tires (if they can/could take the speeds). I would hate to be on an interstate trip far away from home and have a flat... Seems like a disaster. Can anyone answer these questions?
The same thing that happens when you get a flat on a normal motorcycle lol. You want a motorcycle to have a donut? Go buy a car
Call your insurance for a tow truck.
That's what you have to do with a lot of cars now anyway.
My son has a 2014 kia and it has no spare and no place to haul one.
AAA motorcycle will cover a certain number of tows a year
Yes, DON’T live in fear. AAA!
May have to get one!
hope you got one #vincode17
@@VinCode17 waiting on my Spyder F3S to be delivered. But I still enjoy those rykers. Have ridden them both and that ryker is a HOOT!!!

I will ride a Rally tomorrow as rental.😊
You’ll have fun!
@@MotoTaco I had fun but it was way harder to ride in corners then I expected. I drove it about 215 kilometers (with some stops) here in Switzerland and we got a lot of corners. 😁
Does the power steering in the Spyders make a big difference in cornering? Also the saddle was way to hard for me probably the comfort one would make it better.
Ya I found it’s like riding a 4 wheeler. The power steering would only help with pushing the handlebars, not so much with the leaning in corners.
How fast is it
It’s quick, but tops out at like 100
This thing need license and registration?
Yes absolutely 💯%. It is an On Road machine just like the Spyder or any other Road bike.
What’s the top speed
maybe 110
Honda had a fully automatic motorcycle about 4 or 5 years ago, I cannot remember the model name.
Honda Hawk
I think I'm gonna get one
did you get one? #vincode17
@@VinCode17 not yet
Hey Ridely made fully automatic cruisers before HD sued them to bankruptcy.
They don't make a manual? Like a normal motorcycle or atv
The used to with models like the GS or RS. the ryker is only available with this transmission
Gs and Rs are Spyders. These are Rykers they are completely different.
Me too
me three lol #vincode17
Is this the only company that makes a trike with two in front?
No. Yamaha has the Niken
@@MotoTaco thanks
They are usually referred to as just a Bike like the Spyders. Trikes have 2 rear and one front and are Completely different to ride.
And the Ryker is completely different from the Niken because of the width and the front suspension does not let it lean when you corner.
Do I need license for this ?
Depends on state laws but in South Carolina you only need a drivers license
Motorcycle or 3wheel endorsement in Idaho.
How many cc is the can am tho?
This one is 900
@@MotoTaco dang i Want one ahahaha
They come in 600,900, and 900 rally,
Man I don't know if I want one of these or an actual bike. I love the feeling of an ATV/4wheeler and this is kind of a street legal one. I'm also not sure if I want to deal with balancing a bike around corners and at stops, kind of just want an open air riding experience, but easy to relax.
if you love ATVs get one of these. You'll feel right at home.
@@MotoTaco That's what I've been thinking. Probably going to take one of those Can Am courses and get my 3w endorsement

@@MotoTaco Have you ridden a 600 and if so do you think it would be worth getting over the 900?
@@BlueOvals24 I didn't get a chance to ride the 600, even moving them to and from the warehouse, but if you're mainly gonna ride in the city I don't think you would notice a huge difference.
I've just bought a new ryker and within 3 days I new it's the wrong bike, I've got parkinson's and did not realise you needed such force on the bars to steer and the roads in n Ireland are very rough meaning the bike is terrible to control. I'm going to sell the bike after 4 days, this was never mentioned on any videos I've seen.

Thank you for all black frames in the beginning of the video, i hated it.

is it automatic transmission ?
Short answer: yes. Long answer: it has a cvt transmission so there is only 1 gear. Think of this like a moped, it only has 1 gear.
@@MotoTaco Imagine comparing it to a moped.

Must be that INLINE 3 ....transverse triple er "power plant" .
Triples are great. The spyder is just heavy. The f3s is a great package. Sure, 0-60 happens in 5+ seconds, but boy is it a fun 5 seconds.
Also I think is mounted inline, not transverse. Next time I go to my dads place I'll check.

Depends on your state. In SC, no
I traded my 2019 for a Ducati. Mine kept blowing red dust from the exhaust completely covering the rear tire CanAm wouldn’t fix it.
Interesting. Never heard of that issue on spyders

Ya I’ve never heard of that issue.
MotoTaco They blamed it on the fuel I was using.... my buddies were using the same gas stations with no problems
Red dust. I’ve never heard of that issue ever with engines
The only thing I would change about this is the display... no reason to have such a bad display today.
I agree, I think in time they will do something with it. #vincode17
These for old guys tho?
Yes! Lots of retired people would come in and buy spyders and rykers!
