• 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.

BajaRon's Sway-bar

I would like some opinions on a sway-bar for a 2015 RT Ltd. I am not an "aggressive" rider and wondering if the bar takes out some of the "body tilt"??
Usually ride 2 up and wondering if the passenger notices any difference?
What has been your experiences, pros and cons. Worth the upgrade? Thanks, Jack
 
Must have!

The sway bar was the first thing I changed on my 2013 RT-S. :spyder2: Felt like a completely different machine. You won't be disappointed.

The two most important farkles to me are the sway bar and the bump skid. Everything else is for looks. The sway bar gives stability in those awkward moments when you make the stupid decision and the bump skid protects the Spyder when you make that stupid decision. (joke) Those two items are worth every shilling that you spend. IMO. I know because I did it and got the tshirt.

Ride safe- God Bless

There are a great number of posts with rider feedback dealing with exactly these questions.

The sway bar will greatly reduce body lean. Typically the passenger notices the improvement even more than the driver. This is because the passenger rides higher than the driver.

Will the sway bar help with vibration or is that more of an alignment issue?

The sway bar upgrade will not correct a vibration issue nor make any changes to your alignment. Typically, vibration is not alignment caused but more likely wheel balance or loose/worn parts in the front end.
 
Definately worth it!

It was the first thing I did after I got my Spyder. The difference in handling is like night and day! :thumbup:

I had the swaybar installed on my 2012 RT and it definitely save my life. I had a fraction of a second of reaction time. The stock suspension would not have held. I now have 2015 RT with the upgraded sway bar installed well worth the money.

Sway Bar

I had the BajaRon Sway Bar installed and laser alignment done at a dealership in Cartersville. Huge improvement, especially when riding 2 up. No cons to report.:thumbup:

The sway bar is great

I had my Spyder for two months, and I have say it was a transition from a two wheeler to the Spyder. The biggest issue was getting used to the lean of the RT... once I installed the BajaRon Bar, it became so much easier to to get used to running the RT at speed down a winding road. Loved the add of the sway bar!!
 
I wrote an in-depth dissertation on both the installation and the improvements by Baja Ron's sway bar and spring pre-tensioner. Please search for them.

As for getting rid of the vibration.....you are not going fast enough!
 
For the first 6 weeks on my new RT 2015 I ran with the factory sway bar. When the wife is not with I'm a lil more aggressive. This is my second RT, original was a 2010 RT. I put the BajaRon sway bar into 2010. Made a huge difference. Well after 6 weeks on the new machine I finally told Spyderpops to add the BajaRon sway bar on the 2015. I had a completely different machine. Turns could be taken at speed without sway. The Spyder is extremely stable even in tight corners without the fear of losing control.

:yes:
 
No cons

I thought that the sloppy body roll was just something that was just part of the design of the machine. I put a set of Fox shocks on the front and that took some of the slop out of the machine. I put Ron's bar on and even my wife noticed that the body roll wasn't there any more. It doesn't have a harsh ride. I don't think that anyone on SL is anything but glad that they did it. Go for it.
 
The sway bar is a must but to put the icing on the cake you should also add BajaRon's Shock Adjusters. The difference is amazing especially if you ride two up.
 
Can't wait!

Santa brought me a Baja Ron sway bar for Christmas. Can't wait to get it on my 15 RT Limited!:thumbup:
Happy New Year!!!
