I get both sides of this match-up, since I play Kayle and Riven. It's annoying for the Riven player, for sure.

I have to say, though, that Riven can handle a mediocre Kayle in lane. You won't fool the lifers with this, but Flavor of the Month Kayles have difficulty dealing with bush-juking in top lane, tend to waste mana on Q's that you can Valor, and you can bait reaction ults from someone who doesn't expect Riven's fast gap-closing.
