• 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.

    Just Wondering

    Enjoy the ride! I say just enjoy the bike. You may not do any upgrades/mods. I did replace the sway bar as my bike wasn't real stable behind a semi. Sway bar is not difficult if you decide to change that out. Elka shocks did more than anything to correct that issue. Again, yours may not...

    Front End Vibration ?

    I can relate My 2012 RTS is at the shop as we speak. I'm picking it up today. They said the 45-55 mph wobble was due to the wheel, which they replaced off of another they had on their showroom floor. They say it's resolved. I hope so. If not... I'll be back. Update to...

    Any new '12's still available?

    2012 RTS My 2012 performs flawlessly, no problems whatsoever, to date anyway! Highly recommend one. I bought mine at RPM cycle in Albemarle. Got a decent price. No regrets. I've never heard from them since I purchased, customer follow up is non-existent but there are other dealers nearer...

    Shock Relocators and alignment problems?

    At Spyderfest, Pit Bull installed both the Elkas and Shock Relocators on my 2012 RTS. I'm noticing tire wear on the outside of the fronts, one more so than the other. I'm wondering if that's an alignment issue, caused by the relocators? Camber? Anybody else have this problem? :banghead:

    Shock re-locators

    Upgrades I have the same bike as you,:thumbup:. I added the swaybar to help with wind buffeting, blowing around on the road behind semi's.... It helped, but not near enough. At Spyderfest, Len suggested that I add both the relocators and Elkas for a supreme ride. I did and it did. The bike...

    Reports on Pitbull's Relocator?????

    Huge difference The sway bar helped notably but not enough to cope with the wind buffeting on my 2012 RTS, so added both the Elka's and the relocators at PitBulls. Huge improvement! Rides like it oughta :yes:

    Question/Concern about buzz

    Yes to all the above seems to be the right answer. It is not an isolated feeling but rather a notable condition. Feel it all over. I'm having trouble defining it or describing it. Guess I'll get it out and run it up to that point, paying more attention to these details.

    front shock setting

    adjustment The diagram/directions included herein are all you need. Good info. I believe mine were set in the middle from the dealer. I increased the load to 5 for me and the wife. Much improved! I recently installed the Ron's sway bar and now that I've increased the shock setting, she's...

    Question/Concern about buzz

    Appreciate your thoughts My suspicion is the engine harmonics, although I've wondered about the transmission? It happens just in that speed range, odd. I'm curious if I'm the lone ranger or if others have similar experiences. So far, I'm it....
