TORSION BAR or SHOCKS or SHOCK ADJUSTEMENT

[poordom]

Good morning folks,

I have recently noticed that my front end as a tendency of wanting to roll when cornering.

I have never had the shocks adjusted.

So the question of the day, do I have the shocks firmness adjusted,
OR
Switch to a BajaRon torsion bar
OR
Go for new shocks.

Limited means, therefore one choice only.

Thanks

Dom

Dom,
What year bike are we discussing?
2010 to 2012: you can adjust the preload on the front shocks.
Newer bikes don't come equipped for that action, but BajaRon can set you up with some pre-load adjusters for your bike.
If it comes down to a new Anti-Swaybar, or new shocks: try the bar first... quite simply: it's the cheapest option.

What you ryde...

The shock relocators were for models through 2012 as are adjustable front shocks. You should start with a laser alignment and then go for the BajaRon sway bar. After ryding a bit to get the new feel of things move on to the adjuster if needed or better shocks...:thumbup: watch your tire pressure...

I have a 2014 RT I just put on BajaRon Sway Bar & Adjusters and WOW what a difference. Do some research on this site and what they say is very true. I couldn't explain what I felt on curves before the upgrade but it wasn't a warm feeling. The corners that I use to go into at 50mph I took last weekend at 65mph and felt I could have pushed it more. Now I now why the Nanny talks when you do this Farkle.

I just put the BajaRon Sway bar on my 2015 RT Limited this past Friday, and took it for a 100 mile test ride and I can tell you that it took 90% of the roll out both 1up and 2up. No need to do anything to the shocks in my opinion

Check tire pressures first- free.
Shocks and sway bar? See BajaRon for bofems. Rides like a champ ever since!
