My Baja Ron Sway Bar arrived about a week ago, but haven't had time to install it yet. Can't wait for the difference in cornering!
Before long you will think that the bar hasn't changed things at all! Nanny will still keep kicking in, and you will still be leaning toward the outside of the curve. Then WHAMO! You realize all these things you experienced before, and are experiencing again, are happening at something like 20% to 30% greater speed!

The dealer installed mine today and I noticed a HUGE difference a couples of miles into the ride. The Spyder tracked true and no centrifugal force pulling me to the outside of the turn was felt while negotiating the "Cloverleaf" exchange from one interstate to another. The bike also didnt wobble in the headwind and crosswinds either. Completely satisfied, THANKS BAJA RON!!!

Agree. How quickly we adjust. The new bar is great. Rides are definitely better.

Guess yours doing more for your Spyder, our 2014 still a little mushy in the turns, will have Spyderpops check it out soon as he returns from Bikeweek in Orlando.

I put mine on the first of the week and was very impressed with the first test ride. Yesterday we took it out for 160 mile ride on Oregon back roads and it was a different handling spyder. Much smother cornering and stable feeling. Thank you Ron.

For your consideration, think about the Fox shocks. These are offered by BRB and made a world of difference on my RT when combined with the Baha Ron sway bar. I think they are about $400.00 and worth every dollar of it in improved handling.
You're going to love it. Turned Cherohala Skyway, The Dragon, The Devil's Traingle, and similar roads a blast instead of a white-knuckler! (Although riding the Devils Triangle still gets the "nanny" a lot of exercise, but in a good way!).

For those of you that had the sway bars for awhile, did you see any improvement in tire wear? My 1st set of front OEM tires gave me 22,000 miles. I have 12,000 on this pair - left side shows little wear across the entire tire. The right side shows a LOT of inside wear only. Regardless, sounds like I should invest in the sway bar. Is it a difficult job. Thx

I also received my Bajaron swaybar for my 2015 RTS. Waiting for a nice to have it installed. Instead of a dealer, I found a "mechanic in heart" that have the tools/lift to help me installed it on my new bike. I had a Bajaron sway bar on my old 2011 RT Limited and I did see the difference of ride. I expect the same results on my new Spyder.

Definitely invest the sway bar and it isn't a hard job. I took off the frunk and installed. No special tools were needed besides a simple mechanics toolkit from walmart and possibly a torque wench (but not necessary).

My wife and I finally got to really test out our new BajaRon sway bar on some curvy roads and windy conditions over the weekend. What a difference it makes! I now see what everyone else that has one was raving about. It makes for a much better riding experience. My wife and I give it an A+ and . Thank you BajaRon!
