A friend of mine with a Street Bob was trying different suspension upgrades to get rid of rear end sway 95 to 100 mph. None of those upgrades worked. He then trued True-Track and still couldn't get rid of that swaying rear end. Some local Indy suggested they next try the BBC motor mount. He had that installed a few weeks ago and said he hasn't had any rear end sway since.


I rode his bike before the install and experience that sway as well. But I haven't ridden it since, so I don't have any first hand experience and can't actually offer a personal opinion of the product. So far, he's real happy with it though.

Good to hear. This next winter I'm planning to tighten up the chassis a bit, so will be adding the Vibra front mount and the rear BBC (unless I hear something back before then).

I replaced my front motor mount because even with the Sputhe i had a wobble over 90. Now it's solid as a rock

Stupid question (?) But by not allowing any lateral movement where is the stress being transferred too? I'm guessing the mount itself, which is fine as it's replaceable but if it's the engine or case that could be bad over time. Or does it not make a difference. I'm sure they thought of this, just curious.

So you wouldn't be able to have forward controls or highway pegs with the Big Bear front mount? Does anyone know of a front mount for a '15? (Other than the BBC) I'm having high speed wobble as well.

Why wouldn't you be able to mount forward controls or highway pegs w/ the BBC.

Because the front mount connects like this:


Personally, I prefer the design of the VT mount, as it fits in the stock location.
