A friend of mine did it on his '15 RG. I ride it, wow! It feels like it's on tank tracks rather than wheels! Very sold and stable feel. Only negative would be it takes a little more muscle in turns but it no big deal. I would recommend it if you have the cash. It wasn't cheap to do.

Interested as well. Want to get it done since my neighbor has a rear wheel enforcer I could get and if possible put it up front with the natives kit.
