Elka front suspension
The Elka front suspension dramatically improved the Spyder handling. It eliminated the floating without making the ride harsh. It is an excellent upgrade.

Money well spent
I'm a bigger guy and when we ride 2 up I'm sure we're over the weight limit of the bike. The handling on my 18 F3-L isn't all that great. I added the Elka Stage 2 front shocks and it's literally a night and day difference. No more vibration in the handlebars, much flatter in curves, and just a true connected to the pavement feeling. I plan on getting the sway bars upgraded at some point, but these shocks are a nice easy install and deliver immediate performance. I haven't adjusted them from what the factory gave me and I probably won't. Install is a little tricky simply because you have to remove so much plastic and those stupid plastic clips, but once you figure out all of the clips to remove, it goes pretty quickly.

I just put them on & went for a 89 mile back road trip
Wow they made so much of a difference! I could feel so much control in corners. On the strait with high wind I felt like a bird it just floated in the wind guts I just held it straight it never went over 4 to 6" and it went right back to where it was it felt really safe>
