Has anyone put a barsnake an XB? I had one on my Kawasaki ZRX1100 an liked it. Just wanted some opinions from someone who has it on their XB. Thanks and ride safe. Mark Never Give Up! |

I put one in my XB9S bars. It seems to help on mid-range rpm vibration. I don't notice much of a change but my hands don't go to sleep anymore. Of course at idle there is no difference, the Snake just won't help with the low frequency vibes. Good luck, Bill |

I put one in my XB9S. Vibration in the bars never bothers me. I notice the mirrors give a less fuzzy view. |

I have the barsnake and rox risers on my Uly. Still get the shake at idle, but it is silky smooth when wound up. |

Haven't put a snake in my XB12 but my stroker shovelhead has one and the mirrors are clear at cruising speed (unheard of on an old HD!). Highly recommended. Sold many to customers over the years as well. |

Which size? The standard 7/8" steel handlebar ST-1? Thanks for all the info too. Ride safe. Never Give Up! |

I put the snake on my Uly. It works like a charm! Ha ha... Seriously, no more numb fingers. Mirrors are about the same for me, if thats your motivation. A lot of Uly owners have used the bar ends with success,( hmvp? I think). The bar snake keeps the stock look, if you care about that. For the Uly, I think it was the standard size. The manufacturer can set you straight on that. |
