What the poop on this? 

Who all here has it and how good is it? 

$244 from Surdyke and I guess I could get my rear whell balanced again whilst it is off...the foot tingle at 2800-3000 6th gear is getting old...I have checked and torqued everything I could get a wrench on, alignment looks good, I checked it with 2 strings and a square....

Thanks for your time and opinions.   :drink:

Wise azz remarks and sarcasm are expected.  :P

Agree with Chuck.  Thing looks like chit, but the bike rides so much better, I just ignore how it looks.  Glad the bags are on all the time.

Low speed noticeable improvement & 6th gear is more friendly with IDS.

I got it , chromed it , installed my self & love it for the reasons stated above. If you are going a 2 into 1, chroming it is a must. THE MUFFMAN

What do you think about powder coating it to match the bike, instead of chroming?

Since it sits next to the chrome wheel, I think that would be the normal choice. But then again, we're talking about iski. :nixweiss:

That works as well.I installed my brother in laws at the same time and he had his powder coated before installation. His is hidden because of the tru duels. Just hated the look of it the way it was. THE MUFFMAN

OK - I searched IDS - what the hell is it, what does it do, and what does it cost?

IDS is the Isolated Drive System, or cush-drive. Basically, it's a rubber isolation bumper inside the rear sprocket to remove the pulses delivered to the rear wheel. It only fits the 2007 and up touring bikes, but before the 6-speed came out, we didn't need it. You're safe.

Thanks again... I had looked in my manual when someone mentioned it a week or so back.  Good reason I couldn't find it.
