Ok, Thanks for the info.

Still reading/deciding if one of these things is really needed. Looks like the BBrace is a good choice, however the pricing of some of the others around $175-200 is tempting (esp if they work just as good, but are not made as nice?)

Functionally they all work about the same. You pay a bit more for the BB but the damn thing is an absolute work of art. Machined perfection and it does not get in the way of anything.

I put mine on Tuesday night and took it out last night for a test ride. Install was straight forward. My Roadie only has about 400 miles on it so everything was clean and neat. I have had FLTs since the early 80s and can tell you that this thing makes the chassis respond very precisely to input. No slack or saggy feeling in the steering anymore. I wish I had one of these on every FL I have had. Nice piece of workmanship. I put it on just like the instructions said with blue locktite and all. If it sticks later, a drill it is. I just don't want the thing dropping out of sight at 80 on a back road some where. LOL. Great work. Ken
