Elka stage 2 rear shock
The factory rear shock on my 2016 F3l was just too soft. The stage 2 Elka is a huge plus in suspension performance. I'm much more comfortable in turns and just the general handling of my Spyder. Super quick delivery from Lamonster.

Elka stage 2 front/rear shocks
I only review products that I use or believe in. So this one is the real deal. The stock rear shock on my 2020 F3-T was sloppy and more so riding 2 up. Adding air in the suspension didn't really do much at all, so I toyed with the idea for a while about a suspension, but cost was getting the best of me. Well I finally bit the bullet and called LAMonster. After a lengthy but very informative conversation, I bought them. So what do I think? WOW!!!! transformed the bike completely. A few tweeks of the spring loads and BAM!! A smooth, comfortable ride. handling is vastly improved and very sure footed on bumpy surfaces too. Happy and safe riding to everyone! Thanks again LAMonster.

Don't wait to upgrade!
Please see my comments for the front stage 2 shocks for the excellent service and set up of the socks. Rear shock is even easier to swap out than the front! Again a massive difference from OEM. My backside and lower spine are very happy not having jolts from the hard originals and air preload.

Elka Rear Shock Stage 2
Just installed and I wish I had made this decision to swap OEM shocks for these. Can't say enough good things about the Lamonster team. They are myu go to for accessories and who doesn't want accessories.

Better than Expected!
I hand no idea what to expect after owning my 2019 F3 limited for a little over a year now. I wasn't comfortable taking curves, especially when ridding 2-up. aaaah take incurves with confidence now and no more bottoming out. These Elka Stage 2's are all that's needed for a great ride. this is the modification that everyone needs to make.

Improved handling and better damping

Top of the line product for sport touring
I really appreciate Lamonster offering a high end product like this. It's very noticeable for me being a touring enthusiast. The ride is well managed and the bumps are nicely absorbed around corners with pre dampening technology. Worth the investment. Hope to be able to transfer this to a new Spyder down the road...

Great shock to add support for extra weight
We wanted to get an after market shock put on our Can-Am Spyder since hubby and I are a bit weight heavy. For our F3T this was recommended by our bike shop, we told them what weight levels we were looking at and once we placed the order we had the shock within a short # of days. Have since had it installed on the bike and it had made s huge difference in overall feel and riding with two up on the bike. Very happy with purchase.
