Hi,
Having spent a year or more trying to get my two '93 LTs to stop their high-speed slow weave, I finally invested in a RAM shock from Realm Engineering. Night and day is the best way I can describe the before and after. A fantastic product, and a fantastic couple of guys (TJ and Adrian).
Thanks to TJ and Adrian for all your work on the product, you have literally saved me a small fortune as I'd got to the point of planning to chop the LTs in for one new(er) BMW. Having recently ridden a K1300GT, I can honestly say that whilst in some areas it's marginally better, the LT with the RAM shock beats it for smoothness, fairing, comfort, economy, usable performance, and most of all value (LT is eight times cheaper!).
By the way, radials on standard LT rims (BT021 and Azaro) and radials on RS wheels (BT021s) + a tired shock are massively affected by a topbox.
I now await the fork springs from Realm which should be ready next week.
