Billy...I don't know of a direct comparison anyone has done, but most seem happy with any one of the three.  They all seem to accomplish the same end result, just in slightly different ways.

I picked a little vibration through te floor boards aroung 2400-2500 rpm with the ride-str8.  I opted for that only because the tru track was not available but I notice there is a little more gound clearance and it tucks in a little better.

I have a TrueTrack, but I recently saw that they have a new style, without the adjustment rods. I notice no adverse effects from it. And I've not gotten any wobble yet either. Hoist! 8)

Howie, I think you posted this somewhere else, but did you notice much difference when you installed your True Track.

I choose the RideStr8 over the others because it allows you to use the RivCo Centerstand.

I have the Alloy Art TXR stabilizer on the SEEG.  No issues.  I only went with that one because it's the prefered one of my mechanic.

I have this stabilizer as well.  (I only went with it because I got a good deal on it off of Ebay  :2vrolijk_21:).

I can't compare it to any of the others since this is my first one, but it is very easy to install, no extra vibration, and you can feel a difference in how the back end follows the front.

Mark, one thing I discovered (at least on mine) recently.  The RideStr8 device can stand a bit of regular maintenance.  The heim joints on that rear cross link can get awfully stiff living in all the mess and muck they are exposed to. 

Had to unhook the outboard link on mine recently to allow a path to remove a harness from an o2 sensor.  The joint moved, but only with effort that was too significant to be comfortable.  A little WD40 and some compressed air got it moving again completely freely.  Cleaned up both ends while I was at it.  Think that doing this will now be part of the bikes annual spring clean-up and service.
