BajaRon Sway Bar

[ckiblue]

I installed Rons sway bar on my 2010 RT last week. Temp here is 48 and windy, but warmer than it has been since the install. Took the RT thru the twisties a few mins. ago and what a difference. Took the curves about 15 mph faster than I used to and if the roads weren't salt slick I could have pushed it harder. The sway bar plus Elkas all around made the handling amazing. Come on Spring!

Heated gear works really great here in KC, got ours in from Gerbing, jacket liner & gloves & took the spyder out. so much fun now we can ride so much more, don't have to wait on spring :doorag: nice & toasty.

I have had my RT for a year and have been very satisfied with the ride and cornering with everything stock. After reading all the reviews of the BajaRon new sway bar I took the plunge. I ride with a large group twice a week for about 200 miles each ride and today was first time after installation. There is a HUGE DIFFERENCE in cornering and this is a must have for everyone. I lead the group and most said the RT hardly leans at all going around corners especially at the higher speeds.

Thanks Ron.

I am like you except I am never satisfied if you can make it better, lol but after reading all the comments I had to order one also, waiting for him to get the new batch in. Hope I am just as thrilled as all of you have been.

The Heim Joint Links are not plastic as we normally think of it. They are some kind of very rugged and strong composite compound. I have heard of them developing cracks (from contact with hard parts) but I have never heard of a failure.

I know that because the EVO sway bars had a shorter arm length (reducing the already small clearance) and because they did not have collars (allowing side to side movement) some Heim Joint Links were hitting the A-Arm, which of course is not good.

I have seen Spyders with this kind of contact where a small notch was worn in the steel A-Arm and I could not see any wear or damage to the Heim Joint Link. These links are very tough.
