The Three Main Players seem to be Rich Johnson, MadDogs, & Patrick Motorsports

I'm loyal to Rich, but would like to hear some opinions

RJ - $450-$500 - Looks Nice and the Motor Mount looks more stout than the others

MadDogs - $270 - Looks like a knock-off of Rich's, but is $200 cheaper. Looks like you can mount it lower

Patrick Motorsports $486 - different design. Their former Chrome-Moly bars had some problems with welds & cracking - are these any different
