Are these brackets available yet ?
I didn't see them at the Elka Direct website, but some vendors announce their products here before they post them on their websites.
If it ain't broke, don't break it.

 (I think that this is a PitBull PewerSports product; no official connection with Elka...)

Its designed to be run with elka's but yes you can run it with stock shocks, fits all 2012 RS and RT's and down and comes complete with all the hardware. 
look for them on spyderelkadirect.com in just a few weeks! Should be ready by time to open the new PITBULL POWERSPORTS STORE!
look for Spyderlover testing and approval

I interpreted that to mean that it's a PitBull PowerSports part...

IMHO I think Len designed them for all pre 2013 Spyders to take advantage of the 2013 shock geometry.
It gives the shock a little more leverage by changing the angle that it works at, which makes it more efficient.
This should improve any Spyder/shock combination. As you know Spyders go better with Elka's.

Will be interested to see if the shock relocation offers additional benefit to machines already fitted with Elkas and Ron's Anti-Sway bar.

By then, I may have convinced myself that the RonBar is adequate by itself.

I found out the hard way about our local Honda dealer service department. They can't even change a tire on a GW without killing the TPM sending unit and don't have a clue what the yellow dot is on the tire... I'm amazed they got them on facing the right way. In any case it cost me $300 to get my GW fixed after the local dealer changed my tires. At least I found a professional Honda service department at the Jonesboro Honda dealer.
