RE: Balanced Engine for the Touring bikes
Ok so let me get this straight. Some of you guys feel that the vibration-less softail riders are on something less than a TRUE Harley...I don't think so. The 05 deluxe that I have is basically stock with the exception of a stage 1 kit and Vance and Hines Longshots. There's no mistaken that this sounds, runs, and looks like a Harley except for one thing...........it doesn't SHAKE! I guess if you need the shake to feel like your ridin a harley than so be it. All I was sayin was that I love the Ultra for long haulin, just wish it didn't shake so much at low speed and stop lights.

No they are saying the softails are girls bikes.
Just kidding. I own one of each.
Prefer the bagger. No high speed vibes. Tired of my hands going numb.

But in the end, I still ride a vibrating HD King…its good physical therapy for my back.

LOL I assume that it is because of the vibration, like all those vibrating back massage chairs.

RE: Balanced Engine for the Touring bikes
Hi all,
A little know fact about the balanced motor is that it was originally developed with the hopes of attracting little old ladies to the Harley line up. As far as a little vibration at a light, so what there is a reason that some of thetouring bikes are called "Road Kings" Anyway I'm OK without the extra Chain, tensioners, sprockets, balance shafts . . . . . .
