Hey there, anyone who has installed the true track system can you post the instructions? I am considering this mod and would like to see the installation procedure first to get an idea of what is involved, etc.
I do get some wallow in the corners, I did improve it by increasing the preload on the rear shocks and SE fluid in the front forks, but I still do not feel real comfortable in the corners at higher speeds. The True Track just may be the solution.

I'm writing to you guys from over 3,000 miles away, across the Atlantic. Stop faffing around, as we say over here, and get on with it, discount or no!

Ordered yesterday, arrived today. Just need to pick a day to do the install.
The other thing I'm going to do is take the bike on a spirited (familiar route) ride prior to install, and then repeat the ride after install - making sure I'm consistent with suspension setup, tyre pressure and ride style. I don't doubt that this thing will make a difference, I just want a reasonable 'sense' of how much.
Now, if it wasn't for these holiday commitments...

TrueTrack say we should not dismantle these assemblies, but I found it easier to do so. That bracket top left was the most difficult to fit and took me ages, because I had to reverse the two bolts that hold it in place.
Make sure you tighten the locknut on the bolt on the front mount. If it comes loose it will jam up the mount and lock it solid - not good!

Is anybody 100% sure this will work with a factory oil cooler ? How long do we have on the group buy ?
Please post comments when you get this mod finished and have ridden the bike to let us know how well it works.
Thanks for your help.

Already done that - see above! Rhino has shown you what the parts look like as received, I have shown what they look like installed and how well they work. I have two bikes with TrueTrack kits installed - can't say much more really - just go get yourself one!
