Can-Am RYKER versus SPYDER! Which bike is the better purchase in your opinion?

[@stevechristopher4123]

I had a 2019 Ryker Rally- converted it to a touring bike and I loved it. I now have a 2019 F3 limited and love that. I miss my Ryker - it was my first bike. But I have to say the F3 is such a comfortable and sporty machine - I have no regrets

[@c8pate744]

I agree with you.

[@tourinojacks5844]

So out of all the Spyders, the F3 is the one that is closest to the "fun" type or riding of a Ryker you guys would say? I ask because to be honest, the biggest things that I DON'T like about the Ryker is the lowness to the ground and the NON power steering. Spending $17K for a go-cart doesn't seem like a smart use of my money. I will be getting my license and riding it next weekend to see/feel the difference for myself if the steering is an issue or not.

[@stevechristopher4123]

If you can I would suggest text riding both.

[@javersowens2035]

Great job! I've been comparing them for a long time. Got a 2016 Spyder RSS all black, full manual, mint, only 1400 miles , got it in March 2017. Got the 2019 Ryker Rally all black brand new in Feb, same year when they first came out. Love them both. As for adding 20's to your Spyder, there are a lot of other styles besides the Tornado. I personally like the Parana. Great Content!!

[@c8pate744]

Appreciate that my guy!

[@gdhall5311]

One small note about the Spyder, after turning on the key and you press the button to turn off the first screen, you don't really have to hit the brake to start it. I didn't figure that out until I had my F3 for almost 6 months.

[@c8pate744]

Hmmm, I'm going to try that tomorrow

[@ByronArnoldATL]

Great content

[@c8pate744]

Appreciate you my bro

[@rustycleaver8231]

I’ve been very pleased with the F3. Just hit 1300 miles. It’s a dream for long trips. I do miss the sportiness and ground clearance on my Ryker Rally though.

[@c8pate744]

What do you miss about the ground clearance?

[@rustycleaver8231]

@@c8pate744 I miss being able to take ride of road. But, it’s a trade off. I didn’t go off road often enough to regret buying the F3. 😊

[@javersowens2035]

You should have kept your Ryker

[@angelaspencer05.73]

Its so much information to know if you want to get into that Ryker/Spyder lifestyle.

[@javersowens2035]

Yes indeed, I have them both, it's a great hobby!

[@angelaspencer05.73]

@javersowens2035 I don't have none but I don't know if you noticed How big The Chicago Ryker Riders has gotten like you said it's a hobby so many people are enjoying it.

[@c8pate744]

Which one are you going to get Angela?

[@angelaspencer05.73]

@c8pate744 I'm happy just watching your Bikes I might not get one lol

[@charlesperry6408]

I got the Ryker 600 for my first bike, and I loved it! However, after 2 seasons, I'm trading it in and getting the 2023 Spyder F3 limited!

[@c8pate744]

Good choice

[@cardiacpa]

I boughtg the Ryker and only had it for 300 miles and gave it back to the dealer. I was constantly all the way into the throttle and wanting more. That was annoying as I wanted a turbo or throttle kit. I thought better of it and bought the Spyder F3S. It is the best purchase I have made it is plenty of power. Love it

[@c8pate744]

The spyder is definitely a beast

[@jojoe_g]

Good video brother. I'm looking into both of these for my first bike. Still undecided

[@c8pate744]

Go spyder out the gate. You won't regret it later

[@JMyers-lg7eq]

Good breakdown. Both looking clean boss!!

[@c8pate744]

Thank you so much!

[@JanThompson-r8k]

Great review. I have a question. I heard someone say the Ryker was easy to get hot on because of the engine placement. Did you ever experience this problem? I like automatic so I am leaning towards a Ryker but had this concern.

[@c8pate744]

Definitely gets overly hot

[@JanThompson-r8k]

Thanks for replying Sir. Great details keep up the good videos.

[@Cinccinatti_C3]

Nice video. You know what I say. Go from grandpa bike with stock wheels with fenders to 20’s and no fenders and be hottest thang smokin. You’d go from being Peter Parker to being Spider man in a quick min! Ya Dig! Think of it like this. You like the hottest thang out there right. If you, Mr top 10 of the week put yo Spyder up against the bike you think is the hardest. What or who’s bike you gonna pick. If it ain’t your you know you got work to do. And we already seen the spyder you said was hot! And they had 20’s. So in theory you answered your on question. I know ya feel me on this! 😉 I’m one of ya day ones so you know imma keep it a 💯

[@c8pate744]

I appreciate the honest feedback, my guy! You about to make me press some buttons. I really like the fenders on the spyders for some odd reason

[@Cinccinatti_C3]

@@c8pate744 you my guy. Don’t ever think either I’m slighting you. Your spyder just doesn’t look you. In comparison to how you are what you like it just seemed like you may have put stuff on it for us to get tha content out for us pushy followers 😂 (me). I know you love the bike. Just do you. If you like the fenders then do what makes you happy with it. But I will say I like the fenders to but I would pull them off for a set of 20’s to transform the look. Looks good with them but looks fire without them on those dubs. I think tire selection will be the key to maintaining the ride quality on tha 20’s. Don’t use run flats.

[@texasmade6859]

Great Video & Keep Them Coming & Always Stay Safe 💪🏾💯

[@c8pate744]

Thank you, I will

[@Razunitx]

It hit hard when you said the WHOLE time you were building out a Spyder. There's definitely some truth in that.

💯 Straight crazy

[@carolcity3]

Great video. I have a 900 ryker but looking to up grade to the spyder. BTW your spyder looks 🔥 how it is now. Thanks for the comparison video.

[@c8pate744]

No problem 👍

[@naptime43x]

great comparison review of both models (i even watched the commercial haha), but i think the ryker is enough bike for me, also the local shop was running a special on the 900cc for 8k, which is more in my budget. just trying to figure out where to park it without a garage lol.

[@c8pate744]

Check out some storage units

[@naptime43x]

@@c8pate744 thats actually a good idea, i will have to look into that. these things just look like a lot of fun

[@Agoode-xo3un]

Great video pate I have a question the Rims on that spyder look good is that a wrap on the wheels and is those the ppa ORB 15 BLACK edition

[@c8pate744]

Yes to both

[@troy9er]

What year is yours? Nice to see you for a change. 😉 mine is a 2021 F-3S also. I a have the rear replacement for the back seat. Did your come with that? Should have come with both! Mine was used with only 705 miles but had no rear seat, Dealer in Elmhurst had to order it for me. Wheels look sweet don’t change them!!

[@c8pate744]

2021 f3s. I really like it. I could have gotten a brand new 2024 but I liked this color instead

[@jamesjasper3]

Spyder looks great I need to upgrade, honestly I would leave the Spyder exactly the way it is wouldn’t change a thing .

[@c8pate744]

Thank you!

[@theringmaster3684]

Both nice , but with push button reverse, bigger motor, better suspension and power steering I'd say go with the spider!🕷️

[@c8pate744]

My spyder is better

[@11bravo-GoSox]

What about security when public parking? Does the spyder have an option to lock handlebars? Do you have an alarm ?

[@c8pate744]

Im not sure about locking the handlebars and I definitely don't have an alarm

[@ReginaldPowe]

Looking sharp C8. Man that Ryker is just 🔥 you really put that together

[@c8pate744]

That's why I didn't part with the Ryker. Had to keep it

[@carltonmcdaniel1747]

I walked into the dealership a few days ago thinking of the RYKER 900 for me. I am 6'3“ 380lbs Well it wasn't for me. I appeared bigger than the bike and it was very uncomfortable. I had to go with the Spyder F3 which was very comfortable. List base price 2022 Spyder was 22,000.

[@c8pate744]

Nice bike! Enjoy that beautiful beast!

[@MuhammadAli-fb6nu]

The price of Spider F3 and RT is way too high - it's like they're asking you to buy a Camry instead. It's obvious that they're overcharging for these products just to make more money from people who need some help with mobility and safety. If you compare the cost of materials in a Camry and these trikes, it's clear that the selling price is not justified at all.

[@c8pate744]

These bikes are getting pretty pricey

[@tourinojacks5844]

Agreed, my friend. Agreed!! They wildin' on the prices!

where did you get your side frame bag? My son has an F3-S. I'm an RT-L guy

Install some front and rear elka shocks on the spyder..like the Ryker...and tune the ECU...the heart of the bike(the horsepower and torque) on the spyder...then youll see the true difference between the spyder and the Ryker ...you got the looks, but no performance...work on the performance ..
