All function man!!!! I got mine in Saturday. I installed it yesterday and took it out on a ride. WOW!!!!! Totally different bike!!!! Handles like a dream. Just by bolting that on the bike the ride is smoother, bumps don't affect it hardly, and the handling is 100% better. Where you tell it to go it goes now.
Feels alot more stable in the curves and I was able to get some serious lean in yesterday with even 2up. She noticed the ride difference as well. Really enjoyable and we both were able to hit them curves better than ever before.
Fells almost like I was on a Gixxer rather than a V-Strom. If you don't have one of these braces you are missing out.
Thanks man for posting this link and this thread!!!!
