Default True Track stabilizer for newer HD frames ?

Does True Track deliver the same benefits for the newer HD frames as the older models? It appears the testimonials (that I have seen) ,touting the benefits of the product, are on older frames. Is there anyone out there who is using the product on the current HD frame and still sees substantial improvement? My understanding was the newer frame corrected much of the wobble. Thank you

Cool

Available "for all rubber mounted model Harleys, 1980-2016 ", according to their website, later models under development. I suggest you contact them direct for more info. I have one on my older Glide and also fitted one to my Dyna, now sold - they're grrrreat!

Put one on my 09. No difference when riding easy. I love it because 90-115 mph is a lot more stable and I can lay it down around sweepers 80-90 mph and no wobbling or wandering around.

Bike is just flat out fun to ride with the added stability.

Part of the answer would be if your bike seems to have a problem NOW or if it seems fine and this add on is just precautionary. If it seems nice and stable now, you should expect little to no improvement. If there is some unsteadiness or worse that bothers you, you should see an improvement.If you aren't sure if there is a problem, you will never be sure until you try the stabilizer. Then it will either be worth it to YOU, or it won't be.

They started selling the device for the new frames this year. I installed one on my 17 Electra Glide this year because of how much it improved the handling on my 07. I don't think the improvement was as dramatic this time around.

The later bikes have a better set-up than your '07, although it is still flawed, for exactly the same reasons - the rubber bushings are not properly supported, hence the engine/trans/swingarm can move relative to the frame. I described this in my bagger wobble thread.
