Set up a round on me Shirley while the wrenches among us check this
out.

Ran across this product in a forum discussion and it looks very
impressive. Takes a bit more time to install than one of the kits
mounting to the bottom of the bike, but I'm impressed enough to try
one. Their own fabricated front motor-mount is also part of the system
which consists of that and a redesigned swing arm shaft and bushings,

Anyone here have experience with the Glide Pro system?

There are real time 'how to' videos on their site. They do the rear in
about 45 minutes and the front in 1/2 an hour.

I prefer the chromoly/aluminum bronze bushings that I have in my bike . If I
were to do it again , I'd make a set of sleeves to go in the rubbermounts
like we did for Old Crow's Tour Glide instead of the heim link under the
tranny like I did in mine though .

Urethane is pretty stiff it seems like the mount would make the bike
vibrate a lot more, but I could be wrong.
