You feel a wobble... I called it jelly fish'n LOl
The problem arises from the fact that the swing arm is mounted to a engine/transmission that is suspended in the frame with rubber mounts. This setup causes your rear tire to move independently from the frame. A stabilizer eliminates the lateral (side to side) movement of the engine enabling your rear tire to track better.
Getting rid of the stock suspension will also do wonders for handling in corners

Harley knows how to get your money you will never know what you get unless you ride it. I am confuse why they do not do extensive research on harmonics.Only the insurance companies can force them to do right by the customer. i guess to save my own life i will by true track.

progressive rear and racetech springs and gold valves up front.
-on my 08 FLHX i installed a TT that mounted under the trans and to the side of swing arm pivot point at frame. it was supposed to fix the same problem of the rubber mount wobble and sort of did but not completely.
- my question is, the TT for dyna is mounted on the front of frame rails to motor mount? i am not sure how it will help the back end where the swing arm is hanging off the motor/trans. (same as my FLHX).
i guess i will have to just get a TT for my dyna and see what it can do.
thanks for the info fella's

so i see (after actually looking at the TT link) that the kit is a two piece deal. one for front and one for rear end. i think that will indeed make the correction to "jelly fishin". great name for it ynots. funny stuff.
i need me one of these for sure.

I've had a TT on my '07 Dyna for a few years now. Biggest change for me was I thought it smoothed out the bike. Handling got a little better, but I don't push the limits enough to really notice it.

The True-Track isn't going to cure every bit of flex the bike has, but it's definitely the best improvement I've made to my bike.

Trying to figure the wobble i got on mine out as well. 2010 wide glide, lowered front and back. Seems when i accelerate hard or if i hit a dip in the road or going into a corner fast the front end will start wobbling back and forth. Not sure if its the narrow front tire or what. I can induce the same effect if i push the handle bars back and forth while riding. Does this sound like an issue the true track will take care of? Thanks
