Has any one heard anything about these triumph steering stabalizers? http://atvscene.com/scenegear/july-06.html. If I mostly ride on motocross tracks would it be more beneficial to spend my money on a steering stabalizer or revalving first?

Both are beneficial. Let's narrow it down.

What type of mx tracks do you ride (terrain) ?
Are you a BIG jumper or do you tend to make it up with speed ?
How do you feel about the shocks right now ?
What would you want them to do differently ?

Both if you can do it! If you are competing in MX or XC just put your money in suspension as this bike with a pipe and CRB is fast enough. Probably only ten guys on the planet can out ride this bike to its power potential and unfortunatley one of them is now paralyzed. I personnally put on a stabilizer first as the front end was extremely light in the steering. Then I had my shocks revalved and resprung by Works. By the way the shocks are awesome, I have Elkas on my other bike and these are nicer. No need to buy a whole shock as these have as much adjustability as any other shock on the market, combined with revalving and respringing to your weight and riding style. You don't need to spend $2,000 grand to equal that by spending $750-$800 the way I went. Just trying to save you some money also. Sorry about the long post, so stabilizer first! ;)

SOOOOO true. If you are riding in the desert or drag racing ... that's one thing.
But, on a tight MX course ---- PLENTY of power.

never rode a ltr w/a precision but do have my shocks revalved...the reason i havent went with the stabilizer yet is b/c i put holeshot mx's on the front and have the stock rears and ill tell you what the front sticks down GREAT and the rear just sucks b/c all it does is spin...hopefully when i put my mxr4's on the rear it'll help that...im very happy i went with the rebuild tho or i woulda died sooner or later hitting some of the jumps i do..
