I installed the SuperBrace the night before a 1700 mile round trip to Reno, fully loaded. Not smart, but I brought an allen wrench in case it sucked. I was seriously heavy in the ***, we were going for 9 days. I adjusted the shocks, and went for it. All was okay, for awhile. At 90 mph in the desert in CA, it got weird. It is the first time I ever experienced the dreaded Dyna death wobble in a corner. I rode through it, every time. I have been through worse.

I backed the shocks off at the next gas stop, and off we went again. It was better, but still not planted. After getting to Reno, I took the LeatherPros off, set the shocks where I like em, and we headed for Tahoe. Yeah, baby, the Brace kept
her planted, and many of you know that ride on the back side of the lake.

Anyhow, I never had any wobble without the brace AND the bags on, so I am looking for a solution. I know...real suspension and motor mounts, right?
