Two Brother's Triple Clamp

[stlthmsta]

Has anyone have any experience with a Two Brother's Triple Clamp?? I bought my '98 Valk a couple years ago used (duh!) and it had a Two Bro's on it. No oem parts came with the bike. Can someone tell me what is the difference and what it's supposed to do for ya?? it seems to steer good with no ill effects and seems no different that my first Valk, shouldn't have sold it, don't ask.
Thanks in advance.  Tom M

This beautiful, highly polished 6061-T6 aluminum triple clamp kit gives your Valkyrie a sportier feel by decreasing the amount of trail while maintaining the stock amount of rake (ref. illustration). All this is accomplished with an increase in stability. All stock mounting points (windshield, instruments, etc) are maintained for ease of installation. We recommend replacing the lower race, lower bearing and lower dust seal (TBR Part # 013-47-03, $31.98) for maximum performance when installing this item. Use with our Polished Handlebar Clamps (TBR Part # 013-47-02, $169.98) for the ultimate handling upgrade. Stainless steel hardware included.

They don't make this anymore, so if you don't want it, there was a handicapped person here a while (few years) ago looking for one, or I'm sure you could make a few $ on Ebay with it.

I found a few "I'm looking"s here: http://www.pashnit.com/forum/showthread.php?t=23988

Thanks for your reply Tim. No I don't want to get rid of it, it's the only triple clamp I have, LOL. I was curious as to what it was supposed to do. Looks good to boot. I had contacted Two Bro's about it and "kid" on the phone knew nothing. Yes, I know it is out of production but they didn't have info intheir archives???
I also used Progressive Suspension air shocks for a 1500 Goldwing on the rear. This lifted the rear a little to increase clearance and add to the handling. I was tired of scrapping too easily. Yes, I know most Valk riders might lower the bike as evident by Valk shocks by PS only are stock or shorter lengths.
While I'm at it, goes anyone have a Two Bro's smog port plug kit, #004-47-01? Yep, out of production too.  Thank, Tom M
