[QUOTE="bhkfjr, post: 1333495, member: 19229"] So I installed it. I was at the dealer for an oil change appointment and still on the fence. I decided that if the dealer was all set to do it, not running behind, nobody out sick, etc that I'd just have them install it while I waited. They said no problem, should take about 1-1/2 hours. (I wound up waiting over 4 hours). OK, the results are...... I can't tell much of a difference. Bike runs exactly the same temp. @80mph cruise (163 deg.) No more or less power I could feel. (Didn't expect any) Same heat issue on left side Bike does seem to run smoother! Totally dead handgrips up to 4,000, then very slight vibe above. Much less than previously. Since the majority of my riding is slab, this is a nice surprise. This is on the edge of subjective, I know, but I do feel the difference. Was it worth $400? Yeah, I'd do it again but I wouldn't want to suggest that it solves anything that's amiss. I'm sure the bike is just fine as is. [/QUOTE]
