I'm really interested in doing this too but I've heard that it adds more vibration which I one thing I don't want for sure. Please give us your review after the install and test ride!

Just got back from my first ride with it. As far as vibration goes, it is not an issue. Actually, the link seems to hold the engine tighter so it vibrated less. I know that the vibration you are alluding to would be caused by the transfer of engine vibration to the frame which the ride would feel more. I did not notice an increase in frame, seat, or handlebar vibration.
I'll be working on a full review today and should have it finished later tonight. Keep your eyes open for it.
My stock bike 08 ultra vibrates more than any other harley I have owned. Higher frequency range that is. I would be interested in unit becuase of design and simplicity. Looks really stock and if it would settle down my tour pack and contents even better. I have noticed the drift affect with the touring model compared to other bikes I have owned and really have not gotten use to it. Thanks for the info, this will be a good buy for me.
