Biting the bullet...the ELKA Bullet, that is....

[DocRags]

Well, we're biting the bullet today...having an Elka rear shock installed on our 2008 RS. :yes: We're beating the Spyderfest rush by having it done at Cowtown today before more Spyders needing/wanting Elkas show up. We've got too much weight on the rear end, with the saddlebags and Givi trunk...OK, I'll admit it...with the passenger, too. opcorn: Will take it out for a test ride afterwards. :yes: Checked out a few murals and the world's largest rocking chair earlier today. At least the weather warmed up and the winds aren't as bad today.

Congraluations, smart idea to get a jump on everyone else. Those Cowtown boys will be worn out come Sunday.

:agree: Really liked the ride with the new shock, too. I'm gonna have to send Erags back to work...so far we've added a rear Elka and a passenger backrest from Ultimate seats...and Spyderfest hasn't officially started!

I had the fronts installed today, having the rear installed on friday with my new rear tire. I can already feel the difference between the elka fronts and stock rear shocks.

So sorry to hear you weren't going to be able to make it this year, Teddy (you, too, Dave)...hope Dave is feeling better soon. You need to learn to stay away from doctors, Dave, unless they are retired like me, of course! Hope you are back on the road again soon.
