It has new improved forks, with top and bottom trees that both clamp the fork legs, which is a far superior front end to all previous models. It has much the same frame and rear end as the 09-on models, so may suffer 'minor' wobbles arising from its rubber mount system and lack of lateral stabilizers. If you find your bike needs them, True-Track have the solution!

The front one is a recent addition and I haven't seen any rider reviews of it yet. The rear one has been around for quite a while and is based on those for earlier bikes. To achieve maximum benefit both would be ideal and if I was in the market for a 2014 bike would certainly buy both.
If you install them on a new or near new bike, the stock rubber mounts will be subject to less stress throughout their lives, so the bike and rider(s) will benefit!

Thanks GRB. I ordered a True Track today. I have a 2010 Limited and don't really get a wobble but more of what I would call a wallow in the fast sweeping turns when the road is not perfect. (and it seldom is) Going cross country the end of the month and I hope this will make it a more enjoyable trip.

My 2010 holds the line like on a rail. When there is stability upset usually from our very poor roads with long linear to sinuous features in the tarmac.
Thinking of getting the True Track as well before the rubber bushes / mounts are screwed up. Also want no part of experiencing speed wobble or bagger wobble - I remember the speed wobble with 70's bikes - killed a few

Hi Al, I added a note to my first post! I use and recommend True-Track.

Big price difference between True-Track and the Progressive Suspension Touring Link Chassis Stabilizer.
Is the True-Track worth the money? They both seem do the same job?
One give more vibrations than the other?
Any thoughts?
