• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

I'v installed a bunch of great farkles, but the best one ever was when I invented the Seal Floorboard in 2009. I've had 3 Spyder's, a RS SE5 and 2 RT SE5's. My Seals have added great comfort and design to all three. I have 3 sets of RT SE5 and 2 sets of RS SE5 left. When they are gone, they are gone.
Ride in comfort

Hi, I just had them installed. I know everyone is different, but what setting helped you compared to stock?

For myself, I have them set as far back as possible and set high enough that they do not interfere with my legs...now with all that said, every persons size and seating position is unique to them, and you have to determine your own “setting”....not someone elses.
 
2014 RT SE6 LTD
ditto on the Wick-It ECU flash! Best bang for my buck!
Baja Ron sway bar and front shock booster spacers.
Elka Stage 2 rear shock.
 
2023 F3 LTD SS
Best Upgrade/ Add On: is the A- Arm Lights, fender lights saddle bag lights( Amber & Red)
You can find them anywhere.

Hands down; Suspension. On a '13 ST, Elka stage 2 all around. On a '16 RTL I bought used, same brand fronts only.
Second best, Baja Ron sway bar.
Riding the '16 now.
I don't ride hard and mostly 2 up, but it still makes a world of differencein both the ride and handling.
 
I'm a conservative rider and ride 2up 50% of the time. So swaybar number one, followed by Stage II, and then Baker Airwings.
 
Thanks to AbNormy for ressurecting this thread! So far my best upgrade has been the replacement tires (Vredsteins front and Altimax rear). Made all the difference in the world.
I'm also happy with the Lamonster riser, which made my shoulders much happier, and my lighting upgrades from Spyderpops (it always irritated me that a bike costing this much had reflective TAPE on the fenders).
 
2022 RT Limited
For comfort the best has been Helibars and the Utopia backrest and LaMonster floorboard risers
For handling the Baja Ron Ultra Swaybar and Elka shocks
For safety the Show Chrome Form Fusion rear lighting and LED fender lighting
