Default MagnaCharger

Anybody running one of these?




I'm not interested in the Pro Charger (ugly) and definitely not turbos (I have had enough of turbo lag).
I'm wondering what combo you are running, how bad of a knee knocker it is, and if it affects the balance of the bike.
Thanks in advance.

I have a buddy that ran one of these superchargers on his softail, it got lots of looks and had plenty of power. The problem he had with it was it kept busting the drive where it interfaces with the crank-shaft, much like a run-out issue would cause problems with a gear drive. After several failures, he finally put it on consignment at a shop.....
