GPR IV, adjusts on the handlebar. Mid race at the GNCC I was getting tired of fighting the stabilizer so I just turned the knob mid ride. Love that thing soooooo much. Now comes in a variety of colors!  :clap:

SprinterX

Extended stock swingarm - mine is a +4, done thru KingofBling a few years ago in an MR group buy. Love it for the dunes, but perhaps a bit long for the tighter trails. Originally wanted a +2 or +3. Total steath factor is priceless.

Rox Anti-vibe Risers - have them mounted in conjunction with my Fasst Flexx bars. Great combo. Pretty much eliminates the arm fatique. I will say they do make the steering a little vage at times when they are deflecting.

ASV levers - never had any, seems like a ton of $ for what, a clutch and brake lever. my oem seem to work adequately. where's the benefit?

Fasst Flexx bars - great addition, really helps with arm and shoulder fatique.

CCP steering dampner - ran the stick style, then a CCP, now have the Elka System 5 unit. stick and CCP both added unwanted stiffness and a heavy feel to the steering. my Elka is totally adjustable like the Precision, Ohlins or GPR. being able to eliminate that heavy feel during return to center is priceless. with the cheaper units you know you're running a dampner, with the high end ones you don't even know it's there. well worth the $$ imo.

dunno whats really involved in "tuning" a stabilizer ??? i just turn mine up all the way, beacause it fades as the oil heats up anyway.

CCP only has one adjustment, the Precision has 3 spots for adjustment. You can tell when you start playing around w/ them a bit.

My precision only has 2 dials. One for center and one for sides. I usually leave them both somewhere in the middle, I don't really like it when its set too high seems like it wears you out more than its actually helping.

i run a fast way 5 and it is really nice. came as elka puck style. riding mine and then jumping on a bike with out one the steering is lighter but every pebble i hit i could feel it through the bars. after i first got it i was in 5th when a buggy rut came up. i stiffened up and waited for the worst but all i got was a slight kick in my bars. makes it alot easier to enjoy rides when the dunes are rutted up. well worth the $300 i paid for it. only stick style experience i have is a mx yfz that had two and the resistance back to center turned me off to the stick styles
