Congrats on the new ride. Our 2021 came with the luggage, I really like it as it helps my wife know how much room she has for packing her things since the luggage itself defines the available space.

Hey all,
just picked the new 23 S2S and drove it home. Gotta say this..it handles better than the 2019 RTL even tho the RTL has BajaRon swaybar and a laser alignment.
Even on the highway at 65 mph it stays straighter and suffers less buffetting when semi's go by. Win win. So I'll have BajaRon's sway bar installed and see how much better that performs.
I'll take pics later this afternoon and post 'em up..L8r

Just a FYI, if you're going to sell the 2019 and if you can do it yourself, just swap the bar from the 2019 to the new STS. The bar is the same.

It's more work than worth it, based on the cost of the bar. I have installed several myself, and I would rather buy another, than go through the effort to do two machines side by side!

It's all a matter of opinion, everyone is different.
For me, if I can save 300.00 then I will. Besides it's only a suggestion.

The design looks diferent on the 2019 RTL. Are there metal covers over the bar? 2023 is just a round bar.

Did you have the ultimate bar put on the 2019 or the regular bar?
Also did you replace the end links if you had the regular bar installed.
The factory bar on both of these should be the same.
Go here and send Baja Ron a message and he will answer any question that you might have. Click on his user name and it will give you the option to PM him or you can email him.

I just wanted to add that I saw that you wanted the Ultimate sway bar. I doubt that the 2019 has the Ultimate unless it was installed late last year or this year.

2019 has the regular Baja Ron bar. Yes i ordered it with the BR metal endlinks. And yep installed it myself.
Still have not contacted BajaRon yet for the 2023 S2S but will go with the Ultimate 3 piece one for that. Been doing many orders for both bikes recently !!! Latest from Lamonster for phone mount for 2023 S2S and front tires from Tire Rack for the 2019 RTL.

HI WRCLR,
Yes, he did install the BajaRon ultimate sway bar. The install went well. Here are the results: On the left side he had to tighten up the block ( to the point where there was a small dipole, he thought he would break the screw). Send him a pm to get more info.

Got the new tires installed on the 2019 RTL, 165/60/15 Continental ContiProContact. Seems less darty now initial impression. Original owner had let the bike sit for ~1 year and tire pressure was 5-9 psi when we picked it up.
Set the Conti to 21 psi same as our new 2023 S2S front Kendas. My tire guy said they took ~1 oz each to balance. Old Kendas had ~7 oz on one and 4 oz on the other ( not ) there was no run out or vertical out of round on the Contis as he spun balanced them
So we will see if they perform better over time on various roads and surfaces. Tire Rack did not have anything for Q5 except 185/55/15 so doubtful they would,ve fit
Ride on !!!!!

If it were mine, I would lower the air pressure on both of them. On the 2019 Continental 17 to 18 psi is plenty and what most here run, myself included.

Understood. I need to put some miles on it seeing how it handles and then test different tire pressures. Will be taking tread depth readings at regular intervals.
I appreciate everyones help !!!
BTW i installed the BRP drivers seat back rest on the S2S this afternoon. :-)
