Hey.

Thinking about the Sputhe or TT stabilizers, but some say there's been some upgrades to the dyna frame/suspension/motormounts over the years.

So is the 2014 the same as the first Dynas? If not, when and what have changed?

Are the stabilizers as needed on the newest bikes?

( Haven't got my Dyna yet, that's why I have to ask. Just trying the get all the parts in the house, so I can mod it as soon as it gets here. )

 

The Dyna still uses the poorly designed rubber engine mounts.

In my opinion, your money is better spent on better shocks and a front fork upgrade before buying the stabilizer. Teen with it's flaws, the Dyna can be a well sorted machine given a good suspension. Besides, you may not ever feel a wobble. Meow, if you are a very aggressive rider, you'll want the suspension and stabilizer right away.

Good luck.

Which Fyna will you get?

 

In 2006, the Dyna line was totally revamped, new chassis, forks, etc.

 

So not much improvede over the years huh....

JRI shocks are in the mail, and I already have the Ricor Intiminators, just thinking the stabilizer will complete the handling-upgrades. At least untill the urge for an Øhlins front end gets too big.

Getting the FXDF. Supposed to be at the dealer in the end of February, then install of exhaust, AC and cams. So it should be ready for pickup early March. Riding-season don't start 'till late April up here, so I'm not really in a hurry....

 

In that case, add the Sputhe too. I'm going to. My suspension has been upgraded and I don't want to leave a stone unturned.

 

Upgraded suspension to better absorb bumps will defenately help but ifyou ride hard your going to feel the rubber mounts, especially when cornering hard and hitting a flaw in the pavement. Nothing like having the swingarm mounted to a rubber mounted engine lol

 

Tru Track was my first and best upgrade. All my riding is backroads. Nothing like a washboard in the middle of a turn to draw your attention. Kurt

 

Ok. Stabilizer it is....

Now. TT or Sputhe? I see there's already some threads about this, and I Guess they're both good.

So, which looks better/ is smaller. Any Pictures of both ON the bike would be Nice.

 

The a Sputhe is smaller because it's steel. They're both good products.

 

Here's some shitty pics of the true track when I was putting my bike together. The rear isn't even noticeable with the tire in and exhaust on and stuff. I think the front looks good, looks like it belongs, nobody really notices. Pretty easy install, definitely worth it. I'm sure the sputhe is comparable, same idea. Good 13"+ shocks are the biggest upgrade imo. I felt a big difference from a fork brace too. I like heavy oil in the forks at least for a quick cheap fix to the spongy stock feel.
