• 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.

Anyone replaced their shocks with something other than Elka? If so what brand and why, other than price? Thank you in advance, appreciate your help. Happy Holidays

If I remember correctly there was a cheap and easy up grade on the 08/09 GS Spyders that many of us did...We replaced the factory GS shocks with the 2010 thru 2012 RT front shocks...They were easy and cheap to come by because the early RT owners were switching to Elkas...

A search on the here may still find results...But I'm reasonably sure that's what I did??? I bought a set of new early RT take offs from Pit Bull way back then...

Fox made a very nice upgrade for the early Spyders. As did Progressive. Not sure you can still find them. But those are also possibilities. The 2011-2012 RT OEM shocks were popular as well. Don't get the 2010 OEM RT shocks. The only worse set that BRP produced for the Spyder were the 2013 RT shocks.
