I believe my motor mount stabilizers on my motorcycle are in need of replacing, and I am considering purchasing the V-Thunder Velva-Ride stabilizers. Does anyone have them on their bike and are they worth the extra money? |

If you really want to tighten your bike up, I would look into the GlidePro system. www.glide-pro.com |

I put the True-Track Trackula system http://www.true-track.com/tt_products.html on my 06 road King and love it.... Deeners 06 road king has the true track. Straightens the bikes out fantastic.... Little spendy but well worth it. Would never have a bagger without it... ______________________ ![]() Hearts of fire Streets of stone Modern warriors Saddle iron horses of chrome |

Hey Jeff ~ glad to see your post on True-Track ~ my Dyna has been getting squirrly (just approaching 10K on it) and I was looking into the system. Also need some new rubber ~ was looking at Metzler instead of Dunlop, but hear they're not made in Germany anymore (Brazil). Read some good stuff on the the new Michelins too... |

I had the metzlers on my softail - they did not last near the time the Dunlops did and once I got about halfway into the tread the front had a whine that drove me nuts thinking it was front bearings. I have heard good things about the Michelins as well but don't know anyone that had used them. ______________________ |

Ya might want to check out the Dunlop Elite #3 Tires also. I agree the 402 Dunlops are not the best tire but Dunlop does make some good ones abeit a little on the pricy side compared to the 402's that HD puts on there stock bikes. |

Well ~ I guess I'll be the one to give you guys a report on the Michelins... two Scorcher '31s' coming. Got an email back from Paul at True-Track and he thinks my motor mounts need to be replaced and then put the system on. Buell designed the bike and patented it to have three links ~ H-D man'fs it with only one... Touring bikes have two I understand, but on the Dyna, the only way to adjust is for vertical, not for tracking with the front wheel. I'm learning more all the time... CHA-CHING!$$$$ |

It will be like riding a completely different bike. This is what I put on my Road King ______________________ ![]() Hearts of fire Streets of stone Modern warriors Saddle iron horses of chrome |

I put the dog bone that mounts in the cross member and the tranny cover on mine with the bike on the jiffy stand. Piece of cake.... The swing arm bearings, I had a shop press them in.... ______________________ ![]() Hearts of fire Streets of stone Modern warriors Saddle iron horses of chrome |

Guess I shoulda bought a bagger, eh Jeff... heh heh! Dyna isn't easy squeezy ~ albeit, I had to do mods because of oil cooler and rear bracket requires UBER PATIENCE!!! Be prepared to purchase a banjo bolt to relocate your rear brakelight switch (search Brake Switch Banjo Bolt, 3/8" -24) and do a little extending of the wiring (some soldering and hit shrink tubing. You will also need a 3/8-24 allen plug and some DOT4 to refill and bleed your brake. Don't get hasty ~ the rear brake line is about $100 from the stealer... if you are working on a Dyna series. Not that I have that experience or anything... ha ha! Wife felt the difference the moment we took off ~ good luck! |
