anyone have experience with front fork braces

Fork brace function
A fork brace helps your fork lowers slide up and down the fork tubes in unison. I had one on my '06 Super Glide. It helped tighten up front end feel and cancelled a bit of vibration in fast sweepers but it did nothing to tighten up the lateral flex caused by the rubber engine/tranny mounts. For that, you need to install something like a True Trac link system. Eric Buell would approve. He wanted them as standard on the Dyna chassis but the bean counter Dept. didn't let him. Most riders don't notice the flex but some of us do and go for the aftermarket solution.

I have a Superbrace on my dyna.
If you get a brace do a little research into how they are configured. The superbrace is two pieces.
Some of the braces out there, like harley's, are five pieces bolted together.
There is no way a bolted together brace has the integrity of a two piece brace.
Don't buy something that looks like a brace but may not give you the full rigidity you are getting it for in the first place.

Seems like its a worthy mod for the money they cost. I've never run one, but I'm all for a more stable and responsive ride. I think it'd be a good first step in locking things up much better, prior to drop in spring upgrades in the forks and going to progressive in back. That's my plan at least.
