• 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.

Spring Spacers

New member
I have a 2015 F3S and it has the front springs that have the adjustable
preload collars. I believe this to be standard on all of the 2015 F3S's. My question
is can I install the Polaris rubber spacers between the coils to tighten up the front suspension?
I assume that I can play with the adjustment on the preload to get a setting
that I am happy with. Also, does anyone have a .com address for Doc Humphreys?
I have heard that he has medal spacers that work pretty well.
Opinions appreciated!!

SPACERS

:hun: .... The reason for the SPACERS ..... is to firm-up the NON-ADJUSTABLE SHOCKS .......yours are ADJUSTABLE !!!! .....But if you want to put them in :dontknow: ..............Mike :thumbup:
 
Thanks Mike, appreciated. Any thoughts as to how much adjustment I can make
without creating problems? I have already done a full turn which did not seem to
make any difference.

Well I wouldn't use the term PROBLEM when discussing what the suspension is going to feel like :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:.......It is going to feel different / changed etc.......OK........The entire range they have built into your SHOCK is an acceptable amount .....either full soft or full firm .........You will determine what works best by EXPERIMENTING ,.....Nothing BAD is going to happen at any setting.........It will just feel different ......So my advice is work with it until you find a happy spot............If you don't have a BAJARON sway bar you may want to consider that .....A sway bar does things the shocks really don't .....Ask Ron about it ......Mike :thumbup:

Let's see....

Seems if your going to add that much to the spring you should be considering a better shock with a larger range or set up for your needs. With full adjustment and spring spacers you may get to a ridgid shock.....now that can beat you up...:roflblack:
