I had the original design T/T on my '02 FLHTC and in my opinion, if you have shakes or wobbles on your bagger, try other things first . I went with new Metzeler ME 880 tires, new rear Progressive shocks, Progressive front fork springs/ rebuild kit and heavier oil and made sure everything was up to snuff { alignment of rear wheel, steering head play, etc. } I took a ride after each change I made, but to be honest, all made some small improvement , but good tires made the BIGGEST IMPROVEMENT . I installed the T/T last , it made NO improvement . They are even more $$ than 3 yrs. ago when I bought mine . Your call~~your wallet , but thats my 2 cents worth ...............[sm=noooo.gif]

Here's my 2 cents for what it's worth.
I'm suggesting you didn't test it to the point where it WILL make a difference....that is, in fast, bumpy, sweepers with a loaded down bike.(the key here is fast and bumpy, loaded down just makes it happen sooner)
With all the mods you've done it WON'T make a difference until you take your bike to a place where the problem exists. I could take it there for ya.

Some bikes have this particular problem worse than others for whatever reason.... I have no problems with my '07 . For my '02 it was a waste of money, for others it may be a huge help, just relaying MY personal experiences with the original design on a 2002 FLHTC ~ [sm=smiley21.gif]
