One more mod done!
Well, I had a couple hours today, so I installed the True-track that's been laying around for a month now! 
The instructions they have on their new website are pretty good. The rear mount is more difficult by far, but not too bad. The front is cake as others have stated.
All went according to plan, except for having to shim the front mount between the frame! Butthole at the stealership said the new mount didn't need shimmed! Yeah, an 1/8" gap doesn't need shimmed!
Oh well, a couple washers in between, and all is as it should be.
Went for just a short ride, wind was HOWLING today! No additional vibes noticed, maybe even less. Could be the reshim on the forward mount too. I hope to take it out tomorrow to some twisties and see how it feels.
I'll report back!
Mike

Well, I just got back from a short blast over to some curvy roads. Definitely MUCH better in the sweepers! You pick a line, and the bike stays there, even in the wind we had today. Even at higher than normal speeds, the bike is much more stable. I'm happy! 
Can't wait to see what the Ricor AIS does for the front end now!
