Default Installed Solid Motor Mounts, Poly Mounts on Order!!

my thoughts on the solid motor mounts I installed over the weekend...


1) easy to install

2) saved 4 pounds over stock mounts

3) can't wait to put in different mounts

4) the interior noise doubled at LEAST!

5) you can feel every single vibration

6) I have a set of solid motor mounts for sale!!!

Don't be a puzzy, solid mounts are for real men!

Just like the "real" Harleys.

I wonder if you're going to replace the tires with solid rubber ones as well and get rid of the shocks and put struts, hey be a real man, don't just stop at the motor...

Check the vendors on the left....for a basket to catch the ***** and buttons when they fall off the dash from the vibration. You may also want to safety cable the mirror.
