You are EXACTLY the guy we all need to hear from. After the install be sure to post your review. You obviously have a feel for your bike and will be able to tell immediately if it cures the rear steer issue. Thanks for posting. I'll be looking for you next post.

If I didn't know better I would think it was a Ridestr8 stabilizer. Looks almost identical.

Just received mine. Noticed in the directions it says if you have reinhart tru duals then you may need to use a spacer. Anyone need to yet and also whats considered a spacer- a washer? - Not gonna get to do my install for a little while but am looking foward to it.

Tracy, anything new about becoming a forum sponsor? Can't imagine what the hold up could be. You've treated everyone here so well.

Hey all,just stumbled by this post, last July mama bought us a RKC, and we love it, anyway I have noticed exactly what you guys and gals are talking about, best i can describe it is, like riding across one of those steel draw bridges with the grates on it,its just an uneasy feeling,like hydroplaning but your not. I tell you I think Im going to try one on my bike if it worked for all of you Im sure it will do wonders for me. Thx Steve for the research and your time to expose this, and Tracy for the great product at a discount price, lord knows the all mighty dollar is hard to come by these days. I will keep you guys posted thx again. Mike.
