I read old road tests of the softails with EVO motors (no counterbalancer) that
said they vibrated bad due to the solid mounted engine. I think the softails have allways had solid mounted motors. I have never ridden any EVO powered bikes so I have to go the tes triders opinion.

Maybe HD could fit rubber mounts to the counterbalanced motorand install it intothe Ultra classic and call it a smoothglide.
