Default New engine mount stabilizers

Received my True-track stabilizers links on Saturday and put them on today....AWESOME. Bike is much more nimble and receptive to rider input. Cant describe it but bike has an overall "solid" feel. Good stuff if anyone is thinking about them. Also had my upper rockers powdercoated wrinkle black, looks alot better.

MUddyape: Can you explain the concept? Do you replace front motor mount with it? How is the adjustment done.

I have felt that low tire feeling in corners and specially on sweepers, just thought it was me running on the top edge of the sidewall due to the profile of the tire. Never felt it on my sporty.....

Thanks Rounder for the link. BTW part # for Dyna's 94 to 07 (I think) 20-30. There is no adjustment per se. You replace the factory motor mount bolts with longer ones attaching a bracket to the frame. Another bracket attaches to the motor mount and the two are connected by a heim joint style link. Only adjustment is to insure that the holes line up. Front was easy as pie. The back took a little more effort but not too bad. There are other companies but True track offered front and rear links. Ive been building this bike with one thing in mind....riding it hard, this was a step in the right direction. Waiting now for a Superbrace fork brace. To clarify I am NOT affiliated with these guys at all......just really satisfied.

Adrian...it gets rid of side to side movement of the motor which ultimately eliminates it at the rear wheel, getting rid of the "fishtailing" in the rear. Now the motor only moves front to back on a straight plane.

Neither did I on my 07 Sporty, but rubber mounted Sporty's have three links from HD. This feels like my Sporty did.
