I know this has been discussed, but has anyone added the stablizer and have pics?

what stabalizer are you meaning?

I thought there was something you could add to the forks to minimize the vibration of the bike in the grips.

We discussed this about a year ago, there were only a few people at the time interested in the stabilizer and didn't really think it was necessary. We actually had somebody talking to the company making it, but I do not know what became of that issue. If you get some, please post pics and a review.

I was just thinking the other day the Fury could benifit from a steering stabilizer. It would greatly reduce bar shake at speed and probably make the bike feel more planted.

Years ago I used this product on an old Honda Nighthawk. It was very good and eliminated some terrifying high speed wobbles. They list one for a VTX but not a Fury yet.

sportbikes have them obviousely for safety at speed. I honestly can't see one on a chopper, or at least one that doesn't look stupid on it.

I was actually thinking about the one that comes stock on a Hayabusa. I think a mount could be fabbed up easily, it is pretty small and with a coat of paint it wouldnt be really noticable. The bast part is that they can be found on ebay for $20-$50

I let superbrace measure my forks on the Fury so they could make them.
I never heard back from them after they took the measurements..
There was a guy in Hawaii that wanted one.. Area808 was his name on the forums. Don't know if he ever got one..

Superbrace was the discussion I remember now. I guess nothing came from that. The only reason I ask is because I rode for 4 hours at 70+ over the weekend and my hand kept going numb from all the shaking. Does anyone have any other ideas how that can be solved? I am not interested in cruise control because I almost never ride that long, but is there a gel grip wrap or something for long distance rides?
