Shaky, like a motorcycle.

This is awesome. I thought about going ridged with my dyna but eventually elected against it because I do ride LONG distances.

I'm currently in the process of gathering parts for a ridged build soon, probably a triumph.

rigid mounting an unbalanced motor in a hardtail? I didnt think this was a good idea - think they intend the softail motors to go into the twinkie rigid frames, dont they?

Before 2000, there were no counter-balanced engines, and I somewhat recall solid mounted engines and rigid framed HD's were common back to 1903.
