Default Bagger Brace

Installed ` my new baggerbrace from phoenix customs today(sorry no pics) what a nice,clean and simple product to install. great detailed instructions with colored pics to go along with. Almost anyone could do it, of course its easier with a lift, not a jack. Looks like it waswell thought of when being built, haven,t had a chance to try it due to weather. I will post back when i ride with it and see how it works, thanks to everyone who suggested certian braces for our bikes.

You will be even more impressed after you ride it. It will handle like it should have all along.
One of the best items I have purchased.

Had the same issue with my 08 SG and bagger brace. Was good at the start and then I noticed that the wobble crept back in after 12,000 miles or so just about to the point where it was before.

Ordered the Sta-Bo and then sent them back after seeing the Glide Pro which seems a more complete and solid solution, though more money. He has full replacement bushings rather than the existing bushing insert. Front motor mount is with the bushing. I happen to be in in San Diego so Jake installed for me at no charge.

Bike is significantly better than before and better than with the brace. Not perfect, but much better. Would recommend.

Not a very good endorsement for that kind of money, plus the fact my bike has never wobbled at any speed on the straights or the sweepers. I was hoping there was a huge improvement since the only reason I would put one on was more safety when my better half rides with me.

I think the Glide Pro is a huge improvement. Did not think as highly of the Baqger Brace, though somewhat of an improvement.
