My WG shakes when it's idleing but I love it. When I'm on the road, it's smooth as butter.

Anyone here tried a "Barsnake"?

I'm thinking about getting one.

As cheap as it is it doesn't seem like it'd be too costly to check it out. Of course, the time it takes to get it in and then take it out might not be worth it. If you try it, let us know how it is.

Super glide is a great bike, but its rubber mounted. Not as smooth as some would like, but I love it. It feels like your riding a Harley.
