Ive run Tha Dragon's tail two up at a good speed and never felt this, and these are the tightest curves east of the mississppi, I guess if you want a sport bike ride it might do something, otherwise Its like alot of products out there, made to address things that dont need addressing.
Gunrunner,

I've never run the Dragon's Tail, so I can't be sure what the road is like. However, the key phrase that you used is "tightest curves east of the mississippi". In the canyons out here in Southern California, I never have a wallowing problem in tight curves. It's the mid to hi-speed sweepers that induce the wallowing. 20 or 30mph hairpins never give me a problem with respect to the wallowing. It's always the faster corners, especially those with bumps in the middle of them. My Harleys have always wallowed BIG TIME when I push hard in those sweepers.

I'd like to try the Dragon's Tail sometime - sounds like a nice ride.

Doug
