^ specifically stated, not interested in triple tree/top clamp style.
I pulled the trigger on the Drag specialties one. $280...can't justify almost double for the storz, for a gold anodized end cap. will report back!

drag specialties and Storz are not close in quality, hence the price difference

If you are getting it for show, then go for it.

I'm getting it because this bike is insanely unstable on the freeway, coming from a street glide...smaller tires, less weight...a small pothole almost killed me, let alone cross winds with my tall fairing.
and no, anything stock from harley, suspension-wise is junk. swapped out with Ohlins day one.
I wanna try this route first and see how I like it, otherwise, yes...the top clamp option will be what I go for.
you guys, it's piston/shock. this isn't an issue about poor quality vs. premium...it's all the same mouse trap. unless it's total Chinese ****, or more so old/crap seals, it's going to be fine. like I said, I'll report back, but I'm telling you right now, I'd bet Storz is using the same damn shock body.

You need a Vibratechincs predator motor mount.
on dynas the swing arm is mounted to the transmission/ engine case which is only supported in the frame by two mounts, so the front mount moves side to side in the frame. Which allows the bike to be unstable and wobble in corners. The vibratechnics motor mount doesnt allow side to side motion.
