• 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.

Question about shock adjusters

I have read many posts about this and I am wondering what the benefit is. Do they help on the straight away and the uneven road surface or more for cornering? I tend to get some bobbing side to side which is most likely common but was wondering if shock adjusters helped prevent this.
 
I don't think spring stiffiners will help with your bobbing side to side. Along with an anti-sway bar up-grade, spring stiffeners make for a much " sportier" ride in the curves.

Does help....

The stiffer shock settings will keep the nose from diving when goning into corners and braking holding you flater and more even to the road. If your getting a side to side dip it would also help there though not a common thing with these machines. Did not notice which model spyder you are on but the adjusters help a lot on the models that came with non adjustable shocks. The BajaRon sway bar and hiem joints will also help you with handling and a laser alignment with the tracking...:thumbup:
 
:agree: It allows to dial-in your ride height... :thumbup:
And by adding some preload: it does stiffen the front suspension a bit.
But the anti-sway bar is probably the most useful way to improve the feel of the bike in the corners. :clap:
