Very nice ! Rode Rykers in my Can-Am training class this weekend. I like the "sitting in" feel vs the sitting on feel of my RT limited. If I could find one done up like yours I would get rid of my RT
You are dead on about those handgrip deflectors. I ride late in the season where the temps are around 55° in the daytime and drop to around 35° at night, when I get off work. My Harley Davidson Ultra Limited has heated grips, which work extremely well. Sometimes, I ride my Kawasaki KLR650 back and forth to work. The KLR has factory installed hand deflectors, which work rather well in the cold weather. I bought the hand deflectors for my 2022 Ryker Rally, knowing I will be riding it to and from work late November through early December, here in Northwest Illinois. I can ride later into the year with a Ryker and not worry about ice or snow on the road like I do with a two-wheeler. I work the 11:00 pm to 7:00 am shift. I drive 26 miles each way, to and from work. Riding 60mph in 35° weather gets damn cold on my legs by the time I reach my destination. If you ride late in the season, another best bank for the buck is a Milwaukee M12 heated vest. Trust me, it's worth every dollar spent.

With that backrest, is there enough room on the backseat for an adult?
@midliferyker39293 жыл бұрын
I guess it depends on the size of the adult. My 16 year old daughter has no issues with it, but she's 5'3" and about 100 lbs. Slingmods claims it can fit an adult passenger comfortably hah.

Thanks for sharing, some good stuff here. Some may be a little overkill, but great to know these cool options are available. Your bike looks pretty cool when all said and done. I'm eyeing a Ryker, doing the class this month and looking to purchase shortly thereafter, so this was great. Especially liked your comment that the storage makes for a better passenger back rest than the add-on. Two questions if you don't mind - 1) how easy/hard is it to remove the storage you listed, and 2) would you get the upgraded comfort seats (driver and passenger) if you could do it over again with the purchase?
@midliferyker39293 жыл бұрын
Thanks Keith! As for the storage bags, it doesn't take long at all to remove the bags themselves. They latch on and off, but you do have to disconnect the wire connections. Less than three minutes? If you want to remove the whole racking system, it would require some time. As for the comfort seat, I'm not sure, as I've only sat on one briefly. I liked my stock seat with generic Airhaw better. The comfort seat is pretty expensive imo. Thanks for commenting!
@kdub6073 жыл бұрын
@@midliferyker3929 good point on the expense - looks like it's better to go with the Airhawk cushion anyway and save money, especially since folks say that's more comfortable than the upgraded comfort seat. Again appreciate the great tips, thanks much!

I thought of doing the Tufskinz (carbon fiber) for my Ryker 900, but I'm having second thoughts. I live in SW Fla and it's hot as hell down here in summer months reaching a heat index to the mid 100s from June through September....at least! My Ryker is kept inside a garage both at home and at work, but I seriously worry about random days I'm out and about and possibly return to a bike with Tufskinz dripping from my bike in a gummy MESS! I'm even having second thoughts about wrapping it. Same scenario of sorts. What are your thoughts about heat vs anything with adhesive for Florida weather. I'd appreciate any suggestions
