So I’ve watched several of your videos and - first off, I really like that you don’t edit when a part/bolt/panel is being difficult to remove. I appreciate that instead of you just showing a seemingly seamless process during an install that indicates a simple process - you actually show the true hassle that sometimes comes with working on a Ryker. Seriously, thank you for doing that. I have installed a few upgrades or added items to my Ryker in the past few months and frequently I’ve cursed my Ryker and the difficult issues that -kind of- frequently arise. Anyways, since you have a large knowledge of Ryker stuff I wanted to ask you a question about the sway bar kit. I notice that I get some “hopping” at times during cornering - especially if I roll on the throttle in the middle of the corner. The “hop’ is the best way I can describe the feeling and it comes from the outside front tire depending on which direction the corner is going. I have read as much as I can find about it, but honestly there isn’t a whole lot out there that covers this issue. I have tried front shock adjustments, front tire PSI changes, and adjustments to the main suspension under the seat (sorry I don’t know what that spring is actually called). Nothing has really worked - at least that is truly noticeable. Crazy thing is that I can go into a corner at X mph and get the “hop” and then turn around and replicate the same speed and corner and NOT get the “hop”. It seems inconsistent. So….. my long drawn out comment leads to this: I’ve ordered the Baja Ron’s sway bar kit and links hoping that it will - at least make things consistent - and at best, stop the “hopping”. Is it your thoughts that by replacing the sway bar and links this will help my issues? I’m going to do the upgrade either way you’d respond - but if you have another thought as to why I’m dealing with this problem I’m all ears. Thanks for all you post and I appreciate your time you put into these videos.

Thanks so much for your comment. I do highly recommend the sway bar and link replacement. You should feel an immediate change in your ride. If you are still experiencing the hoping, you may want to try the steering stabilizer bar: www.rykerrydes.com/product-page/rykermod-steering-stabilizer-damper-bracket-kit-with-jfg-racing-stabilizer Please keep me posted on how the sway bar works for you. Thank you for watching!!!

Wow! Colour me impressed! That was a brave installation! 👌🏻 Especially cutting the old sway bar. That took bravery and total faith in Baha Ron lol. That’s another project to add to the list (I wonder if Rykers ever stop evolving 🤣). Brilliant video as always Beth. The camera dropping was so funny and when I heard “Quiet On Set!” I really did laugh out loud 😂. Ryde Safe my Friend 🙏🏻 P.S. Thank you again for the lovely post on Facebook.

Hi George! I am impressed with myself too! This was the most involved install I have ever done. And it wasn't too bad. If it wasn't 110 degrees out and trying to talk through to make the video, it probably would have taken half the time to do! lol And yes, the videos are always more enjoyable to make and watch when there are other people in it. There is only so much my dog, Frisby, can do! lol

That bit with the Grinder was some Tense Viewing - lol -- but for anyone without a power tool - it only took me about 15 minutes with a 7 dollar hacksaw to cut through the old OEM sway bar. Just goes to show how soft that old swaybar's steel was. Baja Ron's Swaybar is MUCH MUCH more firm Carbonized steel and makes a huge difference. Just watch Beth here for the install and you'll be good.

Great job Beth. I couldn't be bothered to get so involved so I had the dealer do mine a few weeks ago. For those curious, my dealer charged $150 for the install. They gave back the original bar. I guess maybe if I had told them to cut it maybe the labor would have been less.

Chrysler used to make bars like that for front suspension. I’ve seen the bars split in half when you tighten them. To lift the front end of the car so it would increase ride height of the front of the car and when they let go it’s a very loud bang! They use the torsion bar instead of coil springs. This application is for anti-sway to stop the bike from being too soft riding side to side motion.🙋🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️

Hi Beth, I ended up getting a Royal Enfield Continental GT 650, which is a cafe racer style bike. I was jealous of my 16 year old son getting his first motorbike and I wanted to join him on rides. Plus I missed having gears and filtering etc. I’ve ridden two wheels for over 30 years now. I loved the Ryker though.

I've just bought a new ryker and within 3 days I new it's the wrong bike, I've got parkinson's and did not realise you needed such force on the bars to steer and the roads in n Ireland are very rough meaning the bike is terrible to control.

Hi Ronan, I am so sorry you that it did not work out for you. I did mention in one of my earlier videos that there is no power steering and it is tough to maneuver, especially at low speeds.

Not a fan of straight clamped end sway bars , the ends can chew out with vibration and hard road use think worn out allen stripped heads I would not trust them on outback QLD roads.. a better way of doing it is to use the factory oem up grade bar and use the Baja ron links with the oem red bar . Only thing is the upgraded factory bar is a lot harder to fit but worth it in the long run.

Great video. I actually spoke to Ron at Bajaron earlier today about this sway bar setup. We talked for like 30 mins, it was great education on this part. On another note, what type of camera are you using to film your videos whilst your per doing installations? What type of camera set up do you have on your helmet and what type of communication device are you using while you’re driving? I’m assuming many people probably use the same set up but I also see some video that isn’t so clear and also some audio that isn’t that clear as well. Can you let me know and possibly give us a short three minute video on what your helmet set up looks like and your communication and video devices? It would certainly help rather than having to go through a bunch of videos looking for exactly what I’m asking you when I like the way yours looks and sounds already. Thanks Kaz

Hi Kaz! Thanks for watching! Here are a few answers to your questions: On another note, what type of camera are you using to film your videos whilst your per doing installations? I USE JUST MY IPHONE. NOTHING SPECIAL. What type of camera set up do you have on your helmet (GOPRO) and what type of communication device are you using while you’re driving (CARDO)? I’m assuming many people probably use the same set up but I also see some video that isn’t so clear and also some audio that isn’t that clear as well. (THE MIC SET UP WITH MY GOPRO IN MY HELMET IS PURPLE PANDA). I hope you are asking because you like the quality? If not, I'd like to know if I can improve. I will definably be doing a video of all my accessories and a separate one on what I use to record my videos. Great idea!

Hi Beth! Another great video. Was wondering, how much difference did this make with the constant “side to side” motion at highway speeds? Just got my Ryker in June 2020 and love it. I just would like to minimize that feeling on the highway as much as possible. Thanks

I am a former welder metal fabricator, and PLEASE do not try to cut your sway bar off the way she did, especially without the guard in place. I have had those type of tools kick back and damage adjacent surfaces and in one case cut through a heavy leather glove and into my palm. A reciprocating saw with the proper blade is safer to use in tight quarters like that.

I have the Can Am sway bar. And I have had upgraded sway bars on many vehicles. There is a reason why a sway bar has curves on the end. It gives the bar more strength. I don't think that bar is doing anything. The Can Am bar is not hard to put on.

Great question. Baja Ron’s sway bar is slightly bigger in diameter. But the big difference is the strength of the bar. It’s hard to explain, but you will 💯 feel the difference on your first ride. 1,000’s of customers can’t be wrong. 😉
@enganear
@enganear 2 жыл бұрын
@@RykerRydes what you feel is a difference in torsional stiffness of the bar. Strength is completely different. Torsional stiffness varies only a little from mild steel to the most exotic alloys, it is diameter that makes the big difference, hence my question. For example, the torsional rigidity varies as the 4th power of the diameter. If the stock bar is 12mm, a 13mm bar will be ~38% stiffer. I don't have my Ryker yet, only a pre order. I am a retired mechanical engineer. :)

I installed the BaJa Ron sway bar and end links today. OMG, those bushing nuts were a MoFo to get to. I happened upon a video by El Williams ( kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pc1nnb18p7uwZX0.html ). He used duct tape on one finger and stuck the nut to it. Then reached around the back and felt for the bolt coming through and while turning the bolt waiting for the nut to catch. I know it sounds crazy but it worked like a champ. I was able to do this with just me. I would say that out of the whole project getting the rubber bushings in place and bolted down was the toughest part.
