It definitely hooks up better. I never realized how the bike always took off from a stop with a bit of an "S" (pulled to the left and then straightened back up) until the install. First thing I noticed when pulling out of my neighborhood was how straight and deliberate the engine transferred power to the ground linearly.

That describes what is different. Thanks.

I checked out the site, but I'm a little lost. Do you have to order different parts to cover the the front and rear mounts or does it all come together for the $400? Also, is the bridge for the front forks included?

The dyna tru-trac is a front and rear stabilizer sold as a set. Call them and tell them you want the HDforums discount. The price is $339.95.

The fork brace is more cosmetic and sold by several co.s, one of them sponsors this site.

The front and rear mounts come together in the Dyna kit. I suggest you try the TT kit first and see if you really want the fork brace. Fitting a brace is putting a cherry on the cake - the TT kit is the cake!

I can recommend it!
Has anyone heard of any complaints or problems after having a TT installed, other than from screwing up the install? Any extra wear or bad things? I haven't.

There has been a lot of hot air spent by unbelievers that these things are not needed, but no bad things yet that I have read from anyone after fitting one. For dressers there are several brands making similar products and the same applies to them. Lots of doubters, but no regrets!

I have a TT on my dresser and another on my wife's Dyna. Done approaching 5k on the dresser and have got used to it now!

That's what I've found too. Lots of reports...most reporting and absolute better feel in handling...a few report possibly more vibes but no ...none with regrets. I'm hopeful. Just gotta wait for the rainy season.
