• 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.

Loose spyder

My spyder had been sorta loose at high speed and feels like its going under on tight turns recently and I've been trying figure out when it started and it was right after rt front shocks were installed. It was raining at the time when I installed rt shocks I bought from a member here that had 5000 miles on them and after install, I got on the freeway and spyder was all over place but I thought I just wasn't use to ryding spyder as I have not been on my spyder for few month while engine was being rebuilt.

It's to the point I don't feel safe on wet road( never had this feeling before) and having work quite more to stay straight at high speed.

Could it be that my very early 09 can not adjust to rt shock?
 
I had the same issue but it was not from the shocks. It was the allignment. Cowtown did an allignment and all is good now. It had been that way since I bought it. I put Elkas on which helped the handling but because you are stiffer did let me feel the dartyness more if that is a word. It is a dream to drive now. Don`t give up on your shocks I`ll bet you have other issues.
 
The important thing is to not ignore the symptom...
My bike was acting skittish and we found a significant issue with the front end... :gaah:
