Elka Suspension Factory Tour

I had the opportunity to visit the Elka manufacturing favility in Quebec Canada and all I can say is WOW.

I happen to be going to Montreal on business and decided to give Elka a call as I am looking to upgrade the suspension on my 03. I spoke with John in their sales department and man is he a source of knowledge. Out of the blue I stop by and he was more than happy to give me a full plant tour and walk me through every stage of manufacturing and testing.

All I can say is without a doubt I will be going with their Stage 4 with Remote Hydraulic Preload Adjuster. Being from Canada @ $1000.00 retail and a shop an hour for me that is willing to install it and set me up for around $100.00 I figure you cant go wrong.

If anyone is looking for suspension and is on the fence, I wuld suggest giving Elka a call! ( and if you live in the US the additional 25% on the dollar makes Elka look a bit more appealing.

Post some pics and more info in a few weeks after I get the new Elka front and rear installed.

 

I own a Can-Am Spyder RT-S (Gold Wing equivalent) for touring with the wife and kids. I replaced the OEM suspension with Elka components front and back and they make a huge difference. I am very pleased with the performance and quality of the product. I am thinking next winter, I'll upgrade the suspension on the VFR. I look forward to your future posts.
