very nice video Beth, thank you always, and may you be blessed with many wonderful years of riding as I have been blessed. 45yrs on Harleys and now I am continuing to ride thanks to my great Ryker Rally. 74yrs old but still Rockin on the roads until the good Lord has me take my final ride Home. NO REGRETS EVER AND NO FEAR, JUST APPRECIATION FOR ALL THE WONDERFUL YRS PAST, AND THE ONES AHEAD. HAPPY RIDING TO ALL BIKERS!!!!

Being a big dude I'll probably get the spyder...feel like I might look ridiculous on the Ryker, something like Bowser in Mario Kart

Your comparison is perfect. Thanks for always creating relevant content for our 3wheel community! You rock!

I’ve had both! Love them both for different reasons. The RT is a lot of bike and great for touring while the ryker is simple and so much fun for zipping around.

That was by far one of your best video yet. It was very well done. I'm only a ryker guy, but I dream of a luxury seat. This Spring for sure.

Good, balanced review.

Awesome video! Nobody covers the storage like you did. Thanks!

I think it's like comparing a sports bike to a touring bike. Like you said, it's really what you want to do with the bike. Running around town or a local group ride, maybe going to work, the Ryker. For the Spyder Sea-to-Sky, same as the Ryker BUT the option to tour for days. It has the gas range and all the comforts and storage you need to make those long trips. In my case, I turned 62 and retired so I want to ryde the rydes in comfort. I did research on the Spyders for 2 years before I pulled the trigger on my Sea-to-Sky.
I would say, the majority of Spyder ryders are Baby Boomers or getting closer to retirement age. We just have to have comfort for these old bodies. LOL
Looking forward to your Smokey Mountain ride on the Sea-to-Sky.

Great vid!

Thanks for this video. I'm 5'2 and this is exactly what I needed to decide on the correct model.

Great job, Beth! So glad you got to experience that ryde with the Sea to Sky. You feel the same way about your ryker as I feel about my F3.... Love, love, love it... Fits me like a glove 💜💜💜

Someday give an F3 Limited a go, because it gives you the best of both, the RT and Ryker.

[BLRTUNING]

Great video.. I love the Sea to sky and I wouldn't mind having one myself but definitely could not let go of the ryker

Great review. Really enjoyed it. Cheers

Hello from Apollo Beach FL, As a Mechanical Engineer, you are awesome so doing the work you do on your bike!

[sarafleming]

I’m so glad I watched your video. You showed me how much space is in the “frunk” of the Spyder. My 2022 hasn’t arrived yet, but I needed to know the interior measurements of the storage compartments. You did it visually for me. I need to buy a new case to carry two computers, a tablet, and all their hardware. I now know what to get. Thank you, thank you, thank you!! 😁🌸

Great review of the Sea to Sky and comparison to the Ryker. Two totally different machines. Would love to have an F3 Limited to get cruise control and power steering and my Ryker but I don't ryde my Ryker enough now to warrant the cost of it let alone a $30k second bike. Looking forward to all the videos your trip inspires. Glad you got to go on that ryde and got back safe.

[bigirondino]

Hi Beth, good summary on the two bikes. Same conclusion I came up with.

[gabriellekfly]

Thanks Beth, great video. Thinking of upgrading from Ryker and needed a video like this.

We have a 2020RTL in Chalk. Here in Northern Virginia it doesn't matter if you are on a Ryker or a Spyder the waves are far more than the standard motorcycle rider low wave. Agree the visual modifications for Rykers is well beyond Spyders and I think that is due to Spyder mods centering on touring. I think the more lights the better. Really enjoyed the review. I really do want to go for a test ride on a Ryker.

Excellent video. I just ordered a 2022 RT Limited in Petrol Metallic. I learned a bunch watching this video. I like your presentation style. Keep it up!
