Default Bagger Brace...
Umm, yeah this thing really works. I can't believe how solid the bike feels. It fixed handling problems I didn't even know I had until the thing was on the bike. I'm very happy with the results. I have put a little over 200 miles on twisty roads in the last few days. Man the bike just feels like it is stuck to the road.

I'm really glad to hear that. My bike is in the shop right now getting a complete make over and the bagger brace is on the list of installs. It really did look like a super precision quality piece.

Thanks I cannot wait to ride it now.

You will be happy with the results. The other thing that helps is swapping the fork oil for SE30 weight.

How's the install of the BB? Was it simple and straight-forward or was it an adventure? Anything to watch out for while installing?

Put mine on last week still waiting on the weather to give it a try. The install was 30 min max fit and finish was out standing.

Yep, use anti-sieze on those little allen head screws that attach the brace to crossmember....Make sure you also coat the counter sunk holes too or you will never get them out once tightened properly.

The danged thang is so very precisly made that the countersunk allen head screws fit too well.
