Has anybody with a 2012 Street Glide installed a True-Trac stabilizer or similar system?

I ended up using this Alloy Art Stabilizer on my 11 FLTRX. Before the stabilizer I would occasionally get the "wobble" in high speed turns that had a dip in them. Never any thing terrible but still a little wobble and flex, sine the install and with better shocks and monotubes i never feel any instability any more.

I think the Try Track, Progressive Link or this Alloy Art set up have to help stiffen up the frame and are worth it if you have ever experienced the flex or wobble, but not for everyone. About 1/2 of the people I ride with say they have never felt the need for a brace on the new frames..

I run the TT on my 11 FLTRX , I never had a death wobble but the bike would drift in sweepers and on the highway at around 75 mph it would feel loose like my rear tire was low on air , the TT fixed both these situations

My 2012 bike is solid as a rock, but then I'm comparing it to a 2008 Street Glide that would float around like I was driving on grease sometimes.

Just a quick addendum to my post. I ordered a True-Track for my SG and the customer service was superior. Really great folks that give a crap. I wish all our H-D vendors were like them.

....Oh, and by the way. Don't order on-line. Call them and get your discount. They sent me an e-mail so they could change the billing. How cool is that!
