I used the DS mount on my 07 and had no issues at all with it, was a solid mount and was on the bike for about 40K miles before I sold it, put 30K on the original and changed out of general principle.

Here is another option. Significant improvement over the stock components.

But that's probably not the question you're actually trying to ask. I *think* the current oem replacement is the much stiffer/harder mount than the original, and harder than the DS part. So you'll likely get more vibration transmitted to the frame from the current OEM part than you would from the DS mount.

It had gotten to the point where stopped at idle the fairing was bouncing horribly up and down, now it's smooth as glass.

I didn't see any difference in handling.. Front mount worked better than stock tho I really don't have any problems with the vibes from the stock mount..
