I did. It's great, just like I would expect it to be. Easy to install. Easy "on the fly" adjustment. Feels more stable no doubt about it.

I did. Just got back from an open track day and it was worth every dime.

Me too. Goodbye headshake under hard acceleration. Peel off the Hyper-Pro stickers, and it looks like it came from the factory - 'specially on the black one.

Me2, mainly for insurance got it set on 10 and the front end feels much more planted. Was real reluctant to purchase because I have never invested in a dampner but I am extremly satisfied. Plus it looks trick.

Very easy. Muzzy's directions will guide you through. The hardest part is removing the Hyper-Pro stickers and accompanying adhesive. Use a hair dryer. I didn't and proceeded to subject the neighbors to some of the "finer" examples of English vocabulary.



PS You'll also need blue thread locker.

Well here is the good oil on the damper.

I just took it for a ride along all the back roads near my house that used to upset the bike.

On a light setting (5 out of 22 clicks) I was able to hold it flat along the bumpy roads without issue.

I got it up to 285 kph along a coast road with a massive southly wind blowing in from Antartica.

The bike was razor perfect. Better than any other bike I have ever riden. I only got a slight amount of front wheel skip from the wind at about 280 kph but this didn't bother the stability at all. I was able to hold it all the way through with total confidence.

I highly recommend these.

Much better than the Extremetech I ran previously which had a nasty habit of locking the steering from turning right if you had it sitting between clicks which is impossible to tell through gloves while riding.

the muzzy/hypertech also looks beautiful on my black 10R
