It's really worse than the announcement above! There, so far, have been 2 bolts broken by riders when they were riding. In addition, there were 2 others broken on bikes in "unknown" circumstances and another 56 bolts broken on bikes being prep'd by dealers. So that's a total of 60 known broken steering bolts. Out of 9,300 2022 Rikers, 1 in every 155 (so far) have had steering bolts break. NOT GOOD! If I owned a 2022 Ryker, I would not ride it..... Jim
