I have front and rear suspension done and i still feel the rear end sway when riding hard and going around turns and over uneven roads.

The only sway I have ever got is from a start making a hard turn...and that was really a fishtail from too much throttle

I've heard a lot of people say they didn't realize they were experiencing wobble until it was gone....

Suspension helps the handling, just in a completely different way... It's true that it helps, tho.

I can feel the difference at all speeds, all situations. I am very aware of my stabilizers at all times. As soon as I pulled it outta the garage, in the alley at ten mph, I was already happy. Hard to explain...

STOKED!

rooti , its the nature of a dyna. you can change up the suspension all you want it will not stop the engine from moving side to side. only way to do that is a kit ( check out a FXR and you will see eric buell new this from the start )

I run a tru track and have a real tool bag in front. you can also run a oil cooler with one I have seen it myself.

they wont fix a problem however , but will make your bike handle better. If you don't run hard though or do highway riding , it may not really make that big a difference to you

First you ask a question that is irrelevant to the OPs question, then when somebody says yes I did still notice the infamous Dyna wobble with my suspension done you reply with another post that is irrelevant to OPs question.

Its kinds simple, there are those that expect more out of their bikes than others do, and for those people there is 2 great chassis stabilizer kits available.

The question that was asked is Sputhe or True Track..... Do you have any experience with either of these products?

I have a question though....Does the Sputhe or True Track setup fit under a chin fairing on the 05 and older Dynas?

Edit.....

I just searched for pictures of BOTh the Sputhe and True Track setups and came up with a gagillion threads..Would one of you fellas that are tech savvy post side by side pics of both units for a comparison? I need a chassis stabilizer kit for my scooter and want to run the Chin fairing. I am leaning toward the True Track because it looks nice and is aluminum. I am really hoping I can modify the chin fairing to cover the True Track and fit tight against the frame rails still.
