Squirrelly Handling on 2013 RT Limited

[Firefly]

I checked the tire pressure and found 23-24 psi in the front tires. Never checked pressure as machine was direct from dealer. I reduced the pressure to 16 psi in accordance with the book limits. We did a 80 mile trip today and handling was much improved! I do feel there is a real need for a better anti sway or roll bar. I am not happy with the roll right or left on cornering. Now which sway bar to buy?

Baja Ron's. just do it.

I have had my 2013 Spyder RT Ltd. for 2 days now and am beginning to wonder if there is something amiss in the steering geometry adjustment- namely toe in. First off I am not a new rider to much of any cycle. Only new to Spyders. Over 50 years on the saddles of 2 wheelers, trikes, side car machines, ATVs etc. My RT seems to be hunting around the road for a place to go. In gusty winds it has an annoying wobble, on straight road it zigs here and zags there, not much mind you but enough to bug me. On a curve it is worse. And no, I am not over driving it or over correcting it. For sure I would not let go of the handle bars. Nice riding machine other than the annoying directional control. I will do a complete steering inspection and toe in check. Any ideas or similar experiences?

Yes, my 2013 limited is approaching 600 miles and can't wait to get back to the dealer. Traded in my 2010 RTS and it was much more stable than this one. Not sure if it's ball joints, alignment, or what. It is as squirrely as yours and I never rode 2 wheels, so no relearning curve here.:sour:
