    Default Laser Alignment

    3 guys.jpgI had started getting some uneven tire wear. So, I had LaMonster do a Laser Alignment on Spydee this weekend. Great improvement! Thanks Lamont! Let me recommend this to everyone that is experiencing tire wear or handling issues.
    Oh, you may recognize his assistants, also.

    Can't agree more...........Lamont did mine on Friday at Pitbulls! Left side was OK but the right side was 3/4" out (I think that is what he said ) Whatever it was it sure handled better on the Peels Ferry run that afternoon and on the way home Saturday! Thanks Lamont!

    I love doing these because when they are off I know you are going to feel a difference. I did have three that were not off far enough to to bother so some are right. By the way if I don't think it's going to do something for you I don't charge. Soon as I bust the nut on the tie rod you will be charged but only because I know you'll be happy.

    Glad to hear some are in alignment as I have a 2011 with about 18k miles and all my rubber still looks good. Front tires look like they can go for another 18k and the steering is amazingly true. Only addition I have made is Elka's. Was almost afraid to have it touched..as afraid I would ruin a good thing!!

    Not sure if my dealer, who had the laser, would be so kind as you are if it did not need alignment..

    I gotta give an AMEN too! Lamont aligned my RSS on Friday and one side was off almost 1.5". My left turns were always more uncertain than my right turns but I had just chalked that up to rider issues (). But my Spyder was much easier on left curves and I rode a bunch of them one-handed just pushing with my throttle hand. Made a difference for sure!

    And it was also interesting that although I never had problems tracking straight, it seemed straighter. If that's even possible.

    I guess when my new bikes gets here... I'll have to figure out a way to get it to Ron's without the Missus finding out!

    if we can't do a laser alignment on your Spyder then it is free ,,,The Outlaw Boys had one here in Florida and one in Lake George that was perfect and free . Alignments are being held at OUTLAW/ ROLO Headquarters US 1 in Edgewater during Biktoberfest

    Price is $120 with a DPS reset , drive in's are welcome but you will have to fit in with already set appointments. Shop hours are Thurs, Frid and Sat 8:30 till 5:00

    I'm so glad to hear that the laser alignment is actually making a big difference on your Spyders. I live out in the Phoenix area and there is nobody that does them in this area. Thank God the Outlaw team is coming out to Phoenix in November to help out our poor neglected Spyders. I will be getting my BajaRon sway bar installed tomorrow, so with that and a good alignment, I should be in good shape!
