Ended up getting a True Track off eBay. A guy purchased one but never installed it. Can’t wait to try it out!

If you own a Harley you must be an idiot anyway to pay their kind of prices so lets do what everyone else does and gouge the f*** out those who just might like the product. I worked as a design engineer in 2001 designing brake and accelerator pedals and systems for Chrysler and there is no way that device as good as it appears to be cost much more than $100 to produce and market. We biker boys are dupes but we own a Harley.

fortnine.ca has the progressive brace, I think I'm going to get that one. couple hundred cheaper than the true track and free shipping.

if you ride hard, you'll get the "wobble"....more of an oscillation to me though. you can feel the *** end wallowing back and forth at high speed in certain sweeper corners when the bike is pushed close to it's limits. a little unnerving, but hasn't been a panic inducing thing...yet.

Just keep in mind that the Progressive Touring Link wont work with any cross-under exhaust, so if you have stock headers, its not an option for you.

Anyone had trouble with this kind of wobble on the 17 and up M8 touring bikes? I'm not sure I understand what causes it. I'm riding a 17 RGU now, but my 08 SG didn't seem to have this wobble.

That was on an 06 police bike. Not applicable to 09+ bikes. If something that dramatic is happening on an 09+ bike, something is broken and needs to be repaired.

Thanks. Glad to see it's not applicable to my ride, but I understand what is happening now.

Those long bolts won't stabilize anything. I see nothing but problems with that design.

I would take a look at the Bagger Brace.
