Suspension Advice - share your experience on these options?

[Rexvaughn]

I need some advice from the more aggressive riders in this forum. My wife and I ride 2-up and have 350-400 pounds of rider and gear on the bike. We just bought a 2021 RT Limited and would like to improve the handling on twisty/curvy roads. Installing the sway bar this week which hopefully will improve some of the body roll. The bike feels undersprung and wallows in high speed sweepers. I am considering one of three options to improve suspension and handling

- Baja Ron Preload Adjusters
- Elka Stage 2 Shocks (somewhat concerned about shock reliability)
- King Shocks (not sure of version but look stage 4-5)

Can anyone share your personal experience with these options?

I throw in the M2 shocks too. Been really happy with them.

Before you spend $ on the shocks, look at replacing the tires. Get a good set of tires! Makes more difference than you think.

Preload adjusters and car tires made a world of difference for us. Sway bar was an improvement, but not as much as the tires and adjusters. We are in the same weight range as you and like to push hard in the twisties.
