• 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.

setting pre load

are there any guidelines for setting the pre load on the STS? I have seen many articles on setting up shocks on two wheels any for the Spyder?

Depends..!

:agree: if the shocks are adjustable the manual has some guidelines. Some had 5 settings and the fox style with the threaded body you set by the number of turns. If you have the non adjustable ones our sponsors have come up with adjusters you can add so you can make some changes...in the end unless you purchase the elkas or race techs, which are custom to your specs, you have to ryde and test for yourself...:thumbup:
 
Gene, you are right, I forgot about the spacers that can be put in to stiffen the outer spring. I also forgot who is selling them. Sorry!
 
shocks

it is a 2014 STS 5 speed .
All three have threaded adjustment. on two wheels there are ways to set up the shocks by how much compression happens as you sit on the bike. I take it there is nothing like that for the Spyder. What do people do?
