    Excellent job on how you role play as the nervous novice. I felt like that helped me understand the nervousness in certain situations and how to deal with it. Just takes baby steps. Great job sir! 👍

    Hi Mike I bought a can-am Ryker six months ago it’s the best thing I ever did I lost a leg above the knee after major Truck accident in 2018 i’ve been riding motorbikes since I was nine years old I am now 63 , I must say they are totally different to ride but i’m just glad there’s actually something out there that people with a disability can ride I have seen people that are paraplegic riding these bikes which inspired me to get back on the road again thank you once again for the great video Cliff from Logan city Queensland Australia from the big Island

    This was a great video to watch..i appreciate it brother. You mentioned some things i definitely will remember once i get mine in july. Especially highway riding and knowing when to pull off and relax your nerves. Then try again once youre calm. Im going to take mine out on some smooth back roads and a short highway. Thanks again and i hope youre enjoying your ryker! Cant wait to get mine.

    I got an F-3S Spyder 1330cc 3 cylinder. Much faster than a 900 Ryker. Love it, it’s like riding a formula 1 race car on the street! Yea baby! Most people death grip the bars and complain about the twitchy ness. Don’t death grip the bars!

    Hi Mike great video as for myself it’s mid October here in Manitoba. I will be going to get my Ryker first down payment is after February 20 looking at a used 900 with a few extra on it and they have a couple of 600 so I do hope to get a good deal.

    Good advice Bike Mike. I Have a Ryker and find that it can be a bit twitchy compared to a two wheeler. I have a Baja Ron sway bar and hopefully it will steady up. Those little 900s are very quick to boot!

      I would take it up with the selling dealer. If they are equipped to balance wheels and perform a laser alignment, they should do it. They may not.

    i have a 22 900. got it in august. i have replaced the end links and STILL FEEL LIKE IM GOING TO GO OUT OF CONTROL ON THE INTERSTATE.. i dread having to get on it. is it me or what. a gust of wind and i have to release the throttle to get control. a big rig comes by me on the left and im praying to Jesus. why is it flopping like a fish out of water. im starting to HATE that i bought it..

    • @Nippy2x1
      @Nippy2x1 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Saw you already did the endlinks so you either need to go to a dealership and get the steering bolt recall done that's required on all 22 Ryker's before you're handlebars snap off. If that's done then you need to work on your upper body strength 💪 it's rack and pinion steering not automatic.

    • @ThreeBikeMike
      @ThreeBikeMike  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I believe the MOST important thing you should do is get all three wheels balanced, and then have a laser alignment done. It is not any different than a car in this regard - if it does not track down the road in a strait line, it will feel like it is all over the place. I told my dealer it would be a deal breaker if they did not do it - they charge for assembly, and to me "assembly" means roadworthy - not just put it together.
