• 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.

We can check his NEXT Spyder when he gets it in a few months to see if they have Elka on the shocks. Its almost trade-in time. :-) :-) :-)

Cheap knock-offs :roflblack::shemademe_smilie: I have the Elka 3 way in the rear of my 09 SE5 that I got late last year and the spring isn't marked either .

Also Doc I have the same problem you had. The bottom bolt of the shock to frame is bent and I can't remove it .
 
Yes . Thats what I have. We ride two up most of the time . I tried with a drift punch to hammer it through to no avail . I think I will have to cut both ends of the bolt and slightly push the bracket apart until the bottom of the shock drops out of the bracket !
