I bought the same STB that they were doing a group deal on for 5th gens on this forum for $39 shipped to my door off of Ebay. I think if I had been patient and not used Buy It Now I probably could have gotten it for about $30.

IMO, it's just as good as any of the others and is pretty well built. Considering it's identical to ones I've seen priced at $80, I don't think there's much difference.

Take it off....take a turn around your area thats hard to take, keep taking it, and look at your MPH and see how high you can get untill you just dont feel safe....then put your Strut bar back on , and do the same thing, with it on , it should feel more ferm, dosent lean, or tilt as much into turns.......

Just somthing to try if you have nothing els to do

I dont feel the hard bumps that much anymore, when I first put it on It felt like a new car, I whipped the wheel back and forth and it kept to the road like glue...
