The Alloy Art TXR sure looks easier to put on any one else out there have experience with it vs the ride strait 8?

I just put the True-Track on my bike it took 15 minutes and I love it.&nbsp\\; Very well made.&nbsp\\; It wont work with a center stand but reduces ground clearance by only an inch or so.&nbsp\\;I would highly recomend this brand as well.

TWR is a great unit,forum price break,easy install and works fine with wheeldock centerstand.The thing works too

After reading this review among several others (including the Tech write up in American Bagger) I opted for the Ride Str8 as well.&nbsp\\; I installed it this past weekend&nbsp\\;along with Vance and Hines Big Radius pipes.&nbsp\\; The install was simple, I had the exhaust off anyway so that was not an issue.&nbsp\\; I rode the bike prior to the install so I would have a fresh perspective on any differences.&nbsp\\; I noticed that the bike felt "tighter" right away, on the highway and in the corners it just feels stronger.&nbsp\\; I am very happy with the whole experience.&nbsp\\; I dealt with Dan at Ride Str8 directly and everything went smooth.&nbsp\\; They do not take credit cards at Ride Str8 (personal check was fine), but I like dealing with the source as long as the price is the same.&nbsp\\; I would recommend this product to everybody who has a bagger and is unconfortable with the "waggle" or "looseness" that you feel in the corners or the shimmy if you just shake the bike while riding straight.

Glad to hear that.&nbsp\\; I hate that feeling going down the interstate and you get that driving thru "shifting sand" feeling from grooves in the road.&nbsp\\; I also notice sometimes when coming up on a large vehicle that the turbulence sometimes pushes the batwing and it makes the bike shimmy a bit.&nbsp\\; If one of these devices will correct that, I'm in!

Great write up. Thanks. I have been thinking of purchasing one for my Ultra.
