I did a search and did not see any information regarding this product so:

TourTrac Tree - Performance Tree for FL models designed to steady the ill handling of the FL touring models. Basically it replaced the stock FLH top tree with a top tree that has 2.25" of clamping.

Has anybody installed this product or know of anybody who has installed this product.

The product is made by Custom Cycle Engineering Co. The website is www.customcycleengineering.com

 

OK. No response, so here is a picture of the stock versus the Tourtrac Top Tree.

 

Can't argue wit Modren Technology

 

Specially when it comes to Hardley Davidsons.

 

That's not where the problem lies......a waste of money IMO.

 

enlighten us, please.

 

Surely you're aware of the the rubber bushings that secure the transmission and swingarm, and the side to side motion inherent in the design because of it.

And the '09 re-design of the Touring frame to offset said problems...

And Glide Pro and Motorcycle Metals rear bushing kits to cure said problems...( I understand they sponsor here....)

( With a zillion posts I trust you've read something of the sort.)

Surely you're aware, aren't you...a little?

 

Lighter,stronger,the only downside is the price.......

I'm not seeing it either. I don't doubt there is some room for improvement in the front end, but what does a beefier top tree do by itself. With this product I see a potential for improvement in clamping force where it is not needed; forks aren't floating up and down in an OEM tree that is properly assembled. Seems to me simply stiffer forks would take care of the minor flex up front. I'm in agreement the majority of handling issues come from the rubber mounted swingarm/drivetrain.

 

I'm aware, and don't call me surely.

Sorry- had to.
