Is that the "Ryker Rally Edition"???

Really nice!

I was looking at those online recently. My local dealer, where I bought the Zuma and XMax, have a ton of new ones in stock.

I'm also seeing a lot more "3-wheelers" on the road now too . . ..

Best of luck with it.

Keep us posted on how it handles.

Yes, but a fully loaded Burgman 650 Executive does everything except make you coffee in the morning...and I bet you could add that as a option too.
It is definitely heavy, but the 650 is a touring scooter, whereas the Spyder comes in many styles and flavors.

it was 12500 tax and all the fees if i could of picked a burghman 650 up if i droped it i might of bought one instead but i cant even ride my x max 300 unless my son is around cause if i drop it i cant pick it up and you cant always depend on someone having mercy on you and helping you pick it up. Theres alot of gravel and dirt roads where i ride so i bought the rally edition

Fantastic

[easyrider]

12500 and no windshield

[big bear]

nope and it only gets 30 mpg

Now that you've had it for a couple of weeks how do you like it so far?

Are you "at home" (comfortable) with the controls and operation of it?

Does it take awhile to get used to approaching the apex on turns . . . allowing for more space?

well i have around 150 miles on it now if youve ever rode an ATV its kinda like that except it lower wider in the front and you dont really notice that theres only one wheel in the back. I am aware that you have to be careful in reverse if your not on level ground it can get tippy in reverse if your on uneven ground. Its raining here today so im riding the ryker last week it was sunny so i took the x max it should be a decent bad weather machine theres a video of a guy riding a ryker in canada on bad roads in the winter on you tube the ryker was plowing right through the snow. If you looking for gas mileage you will be disapointed i think my honda fit gets better gas mileage i might be getting 25 miles to the gallon. But it is 900 cc and 82 horsepower

[you you]

Is it comfortable? The footpegs look really far forward

[big bear]

the footpegs brake pedal and handlebars are all ajustable you can put them where it works best for you

so far its doing good i bought it to ride mostly on rainy days and on dirt roads. Its so fast i never need to take it out of eco mode

[Yorkie150]

what is it based on ? engine etc ?

[big bear]

ive heard its like a snowmobile on wheels but ive never ridden a snowmobile so i dont know. It seems to me its like an ATV thats lowered and set up for street use i know in europe you can make ATVS steeet legal here in trump land you cant. The amish can ride there buggys on the roads but i cant turn a tire legaly on the road with my ATV so i bought the ryker
