New rear shock

[Dib52]

Well, had the first mechanical fix on the:spyder2:. Noticed about 2 weeks ago, there was some "slap" on the rear. Standing on the passenger foot pegs and jumping up and down I could hear the shock bottoming out on rebound. Quick trip to the dealer confirmed it and parts were ordered. Just got back from the dealer and happy to report all is well, new shock on the back. It's a 2012 version, so hopefully it will hold up better than the old one which had just 2000 miles.

I had the same problem last year but the dealer didn't replace the shock when I first brought it in. A few months later it had to be replaced. No problems since.

I have a 2010 RT-S SE5 had to have rear shock replaced this spring at 5282 miles . Dealer tech was servicing spyder and he had it out for a test ride when he blew out the rear shock so it was replaced under warranty. No problems since :yes::thumbup:

rear air bag

has anyone had a rear air bag that would not hold air? I can air mine up and two days later, all the air is gone. Any one else with this problem. Thanks

I went through 2 rear shocks very quickly. Third time I put an Elka on. Problem solved.
