I bought two just in case they quit selling them, or mine breaks while they dont stock them. Its not slick at all though. The people at these kind of store dont know what they are selling so I never bother asking. Just look in the motorcycle/atv section depending on what time of year it is. When they have the ATV stuff out, its for sale. When the motorcycle stuff is for sale, its not. Check the various clearance sections at that time. I bought my second one for $5 in a clearance section by the cameras. They had about 20 of them there.
