None for me. My personal bike is a RKC. My work bike is a FLHPI. I haven't seen the need on either bike.

True Trax, Traction Master, TXR ??? Which one are you using? --- None , had one on my '02 FLHTC and wasted $400. Make sure the bike is in "spec' alignment and rear wheel wise, good shocks, all bushings { swaybar, etc. }and mounts are good, steering tight, and ya have a good tires set at the right psi..then if its not right maybe consider one of these...

Ridestr8. Used this one because it did not reduce ground clearance. Got a discount at http://www.axiomcycles.com/pages/ite...temsection=528

Have noticed a significant difference.

Yes, tire pressure is correct, shock pressure is correct, rear wheel alignment is correct, bushings and motor mounts are good, steering tight. But it was still mushy and wallowed. With the ridestr8 it is much improved.

I am still on the fence. I have yet to experience the rear steer or whatever people want to call it since this 08' is my first bagger. Most of the riding I do on my SG is highway, or slow back roads. NJ is far from canyon country.
