SuperBrace Results?

Wouldn't it make more of a difference on the 21" narrow tire?
Also, I have ridden my wide glide (which doesn't), and a buddies super glide (which does) . I thought it made a huge difference on the small ruts on the interstate when changing lane position which has a greater effect on the narrow tire.

The first thing I did after installing mine was put it to the test on some high speed sweepers where the bike had been plagued with a horrible wobble. Taking the curves @90 was the very limit of the stock bike's ability with me on the seat. There was virtually no difference before and after the brace install. I did manage to get a noticeable improvement in front-end peroformance after I rebuilt the forks and installed Race Tech Gold Valves.
What all this did help to do was identify where the wobble was coming from and....you guessed it; the swingarm/frame connection. I believe the only mod that will actually make any other mods appreciable is the True-Track or Spruel (sp) system. I do think that once the lateral movement is taken out of the bike that other mods like real shocks instead of tin cans with chrome springs and perhaps a steering stabilizer could make the bike perform as a person would expect a 21st century cruiser to perform...at least in the handling dept.

Off topic: I've never taken my front reflectors off because when I was going to do it my g/f said it was hard enough to see me @ night and thought I needed that little extra to help the idiots out there see me. I shrugged and put away the hair dryer.[/QUOTE]
Very smart girlfriend. Could never figure out why people remove reflectors, especially the rear one.
