glide pro stabilizer
Does anyone have any experience with this system?I just heard of them the other day and they seem like an option as a stabilizer because I cant run the tru-trac with my new s&s power tune dual exhaust.

Install the Glide Pro set up and you will be fixing the root cause of the problem and not need any band aid brace.
I installed several on mine and buddies bikes and actually have the newest setup on the bench for my current bike. You will notice a very positive difference when you pull out the driveway.

Put it on, too much vibration translated to the chassis, took it back off, and went back to Sta-Bo, cheaper, simpler, equally effective without the vibes. Get the front motor mount as well.

How much increase are we talking here?

I changed my stock front motor mount with a glide pro and the difference in vibration was HUGE (much less). Some day I may install the rest of the system, but right now I'm happy with just the front mount.

I had the same issue at first with the vibe, the cure is to leave the front mount loose fire up the bike after its warmed up and give it a couple 2k rpm revs than shut it down after it settles then torque the bolt to 10-12 foot lbs. they are expensive though. Be sure you ask for the new style rear bushings if you buy that set.
