Mores questions on Front Suspension

[mguin]

Those of you who have already swapped out the RS fronts shocks for 2011 RT front shocks, Do you recommend a setting for 1 up riding w/ rider about 185 lbs.?

Also, does my shopping list look right... 2 shocks, 2 sprngs, 2 adjuster rings, 2 spring stoppers, 2 ring protectors, 4 hex flanged screws and 4 hex flanged M10 nuts?

Thanks for pointing this non maintenance minded man in the right direction.

Not sure about the 2011 RT shocks. I bought a set of 2010 RT shocks from another spyderlover and installed them on my 2008 GS. They were complete with springs and all adjusters. I started with springs set at 4 but the expansion strips and bumps were too harsh. Moved back to 3 and really like it there. 1 up 200 lb rider. Cornering is unbelievable, a great improvement from the GS shocks.

Haven't really seen any post where RS owners have used 2011 RT shocks yet...Your parts list is complete...:thumbup: RS riders have gone with 2010 RT shocks and have posted good results in handling/performance.

I built a set of 2010 RT shocks with custom red shocks and blk springs for my RS and never got the chance to mount before I traded for a RT-S and also have the set 2010 RT shocks I took off my RT-S at 600mi. and replaced with performance shocks....

Good Luck hope 2011 RT shocks work out for your RS...
