• 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.

    Rear ACS/suspension on 2015 RT seems to have failed - anyone else? How did you address it?

    I have a friend who just purchased a used 2015 RT special. It seems like his rear suspension has failed. The rear suspension doesn’t seem to work at all (air bag issue or compressor issue)? Have any of you had the same issue and if so how did you address it?

    Why should I consider upgrading the shocks? What should I expect if I do?

    Elka stage 2 shocks, BajaRon's swaybar, get rid of the Kenda tires (2 ply), and put good quality tires on - the front especially, for a nice difference!

    Anyone installed Pedal Box/Pedal Commander on 2024?

    I had the techs @ BajaRon’s place install the Pedal Box on mine. It has made such a great experience riding it now! I’m very glad I had it installed!! Thanks Ron!!

    Trying to decide if I want to start doing my own oil changes - what should I budget?

    I could not agree more. I was just at his shop getting some work done and Ron and his staff couldn’t have been more helpful and professional if they tried. I highly recommend his shop for any Spyder related maintenance needs..!

    Ran up to BajaRons place yesterday - can't say enough about how great they are!

    I’m still “cautiously” getting used to it so I haven’t even used the sport+ yet. I’ll try to get out today and try it and get back to you. I’m just being careful.

    Ran up to BajaRons place yesterday - can't say enough about how great they are!

    Took a run up to his business to get some service done on my Spyder. I also ended up adding a Pedal Box to the list of items that I just had to have! Ron came out to chat with us (I brought some Spyder friends with) and had a great time chatting with him and his staff (fun and professional folks...

    Any benefits from Elka Shocks after sway bar upgrade?

    I installed the BajaRon swaybar immediately after I purchased mine. I loved the “more positive” feeling it made especially in turns. After a couple years I “invested” in the stage 2 Elka shocks and I can tell you that I felt the improvement right away ..! It now goes into curves with a very...

    Replaced rear turn & back up lights with LED's, now blinking fast! Fixes?

    I decided to replace my incandescent bulbs (rear turn signals and back up bulbs) with led for brighter awareness. Now my turn signals blink fast so I would like to ask for advice about how to correct this issue please..? Thanks

    Want to replace Reverse lights with brighter LED's - any sources/part numbers?

    I got rid of the incandescent turn signal bulbs and reverse bulbs with much brighter led replacements. Glad I did it. Made a big difference..!

    Baja Ron ultimate sway bar, Thoughts after 1500 miles.

    I installed the BajaRon bar and more recently added the front set of Elka shocks. That combination is a game changer..! The shocks are not cheap but they are very well made and (In my opinion) worth every dime because of the profound difference they make in the handling of the machine..! My .02...

    Beware of Centramatic wheel balancers

    10-4. I reread the thread and realized that. I’m glad I purchased mine when I did because I believe in the concept of how they should work.

    Want to replace Reverse lights with brighter LED's - any sources/part numbers?

    1156 type bulbs is what I found. I ordered some bright led 1156 type inserts on Amazon
