Sputhe Engineering Dyna Chassis stabilizer.
#11
1. Rear wheel alignment. (free - I did it)
2. Vehicle alignment. (free - I did it)
3. Front motor mount shim. (fender washers from hardware store... $2.00).
You guys that are all hot after the stabilizers, ought to try the services before you do it. It may say you some bucks.... it may not... but it might be worth a try.

Any of them will work I suppose. The Sputhe lists for $360 I believe, but I got a better deal on it.
TruTrack is $340 list.
I used $400 because if you order it you have to pay shipping and depending on where you live tax.
I looked closely at both of them and to my eye the Sputhe looked like it was better built.

But if you ride aggressively your gonna notice the problem even with the mounts shimmed up.

This is something I plan to try before I spend bucks.

Never heard one say that before... for me it's on my to do list... but on the bottom of it because of its cost, before that on my handleing list I'll do ricor intimidators, better fork springs and a steering stabilizer.

This aggressive enough?

Fitting only one stabilizer is a bit like sitting down to a steak with only a fork and no knife to cut it! Fit them both or don't bother at all.
The only part of our bike that keeps us on the road are the tyres. If they don't follow each other faithfully, changing tyres or suspension will have little effect. So IMHO the correct way to improve any rubber-mount Harley is to install a stabilizer kit, then everything else follows. A fork brace may not be necessary (I don't feel a need for one on my Dyna), better tyres will further improve the ride and give better cornering and grip in the wet, better shocks will improve things further.
But that is the way to tackle this: stabilizer kit, tyres, shocks. Anything after those is putting extra cherries on the cake!
