I had one on an 08 cbr1000rr and also my track 04 RC51. Absolutely loved it. Worked well. Best part was i had the RSC which is the reactive one. So when putting around the pits it's like riding without a damper, but when needed it kicks in. Wish i could of found a good used when i bought my sprint.

That one is the standard. The RSC has what looks like a piggy back reservoir.

The performance should be the same. The RSC is "active" which basically means it won't dampen in a slow moving situation. It is suppose to make slow moving manuvering as easy as not having a damper.

thanks guys I purchased it and it should be here end of the week beginning of next week. I dont think I could go wrong with a new $185 stabilizer that comes with the mounting kit.
