After attempting to resolve the Dyna Wobble that occurs between 35-42MPH if replacing the tires does not resolve it I will be installing one myself. That is right after I fabricate and install an upper mount to the forward cylinder and the frame ala Street/Road Glide to stabilize the motor better.

Make sure you get a fully adjustable damper so you can get the right feel for your style of riding. If you find a good deal on a damper that wont fit your fork you can get 49mm clamps here

Hope that helped
It's one off of eBay not sure of the brand. They also have one on eBay that's called rider choice? Priced at $200
