I guess it depends on what kind of condition the track is in. I put one on mine a few weeks ago and it was a night and day difference. I could stay on the track much longer before my arms got tired.

I run one. It does make a huge difference. It absorbs a lot of the handle bar flutter. Arm fatigue is no longer an issue.

Gibson 7 position rebuildable stick stabilizer is what I use. It cost right around $150.00

It can be done in your garage. I bought a rebuid kit for 20 bucks and it comes with instructions.

Thanks I've wonder but just never asked lol...i would like to purchase one soon because i always get arm pump bad, especially when the trails are rough and your flying.oh one more thing hornetgod13 how would your stabilizer work for me? i ride rough on rocky,rutted,rooted and hard flat flat trails. i think that your set up or any rebuildable for that matter would make me ride harder longer.

It does exactally as you thought. It will work great for your riding style. It dampens all the rapid bar movement and your arms take less of a beating. In turn, you can ride longer and faster.

I never had any arm pump problems but my wrists would kill me after riding. After I installed the stabilizer I haven't had any problems since
