I took the DD off my UO8 over 35 years ago because (a) the bike looked faster, like a PX10, without it, and (2) it added some small weight without seeming to do anything useful. I sure wasn't trying to save the bike for posterity (though I was applying it to my posterior regularly). For the same reasons I did not go out of my way to find DDs for the other bikes.

But I didn't vote in the poll. What you do with it (or by now what you did with it) is entirely up to you.
