mw this is what I am trying to avoid!!! [smiley=worthless.gif]

Hey mw, can you take a lower profile picture (I want to see how much ground clearance you lose)

[mw8385]

Wow! Let the sparks fly!!  [smiley=wreck.gif]  103tHunDer is right. The bottom of the bracket sits about even with the exhaust pipe. The other piece bolts up to the oil pan. I will try to get some better pics when I get home.

mw, your friend/co-worker did a helluva job on that piece.

In the above pic my bike is on a lift with the wheel hangin free. There is plenty of clearance between the swingarm and the stabilizer arm. Tommorrow if I have time I will try to get it on the lift and measure the clearance.

MW obviously from the pictures of my TRUE-TRACK you can tell that I have a great interest in this product, but before I drop another 5 bills, I do not want to leave any stones unturned!!! [smiley=wall.gif]

mw, can you check with Dan to see if there would be any interest in getting a group buy going with this and what the bracket pricing might be?

Thanks, mw.  I started a thread in the Group Buys section of the Marketplace using the information you provided.  Let's see how many folks are interested. [smiley=nixweiss.gif]

After reading everyone's comments about the 440 shocks, I decided to bite the bullet and give 'em a try.  It was the best $400.00 I've ever spent on a bike!  Not only was the ride MUCH  smoother, but, the bike doesn't bottom out as it did with the stock shocks.  The only problem after the installation is now I notice how crappy the front shocks are.  Has anyone tried the Progressive front springs??

Race tech also makes front end susp... Read about it in one of the mags.

"I have the True-Track installed which makes the cornering angle worse/less than stock."

I installed a set-up called Ride-Str8. A friend at work (aerospace design engineer) designed and makes them. It uses an OEM swing arm bracket with a 3/8" cold rolled steel bracket welded to it. Attached to that is a stabilizer arm that attaches to another bracket that bolts on to the oil pan. I put one on my bike and so far no wobbles. Its a nice set-up and took about an hour and a half to install. It does not affect ground clearance at all.

MW in your picture their is a little black o-ring (it appears to be rubber), what is it used for? or is that a mistake having it in the picture?

[mw8385]

It is a rubber o-ring. It's used to keep the stabilizer link from vibrating against the bracket.  [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]
