Only question I have now is durability and how long they last. Spoon talks about how they mold but dont crush. Last thing i need is for one to wear down and come off over time creating a much bigger issue. Similarly can the subframe and other connections to it hold up with the increased shock / force from the increases rigidity?

Hey guys! Today, I took my fl5 to Honda Guys in Torrance, CA to get rigid collars installed for both the front and rear.

A total of 24 collars were installed, a fairly simple install that took about an hour.

I took it to the street and residential to check the difference for about an hour, and these were the effects of this kit:

• Reduction of annoying vibration and shaking that occurs when the engine is started. And the overall driving experience has changed, not stiffer but feels more rigid and solid going over bumps and obstacles. It just feels tighter than before. I bet this smooth overall feel reduces fatigue on long drives.
• A decrease in vibration so a reduction in cabin noise
• Better straight-running stability, docile rolling, and reduced corrective steering.
• Improved straight-line stability, compliant roll characteristics, and reduced amount of steering corrections in comfort mode (steering setting).

I highly recommend this simple, yet underrated mod on your fl5. Kudos to リジカラ

What shop in torrance did you go to? I'm planning on doing this and wondering if it work just having someone else do it for me. How much did he charge back then?
