Default Bar Snake?

Has anyonever heard of or tried this product. It's supposed to cut down on the vibration in the handlebars.My shovelhead buzzes so bad at high RPMs, and it's hard to hold on to above 70mph. If it works this would be a good idea.

I used one on a Fatboy I had years ago....surprisingly enough they work.... just make sure you get the right diameter for your bars

used one on my fxr, it worked ok. It did not work as well as the std vibration dampners that bolt on to the end of the bars. I know they don't look right on a HD, but they worked better than the bar snake.

Thanks for the input, I'm probably gonna give it a try, they are pretty cheap.
