Glide Pro makes them for baggers. I was not aware they make a version for the Dyna.

The HD dealer told me he could order me a different type of front mount that was better than the stock one, but it would cost me about $160.
Everything up here at HD is twice the price of parts in the US.

I'd ask him to elaborate. Never heard of another front motor mount for a Dyna besides stock.

I used poly in front end of my classic car. Big mistake. Ride way too harsh. Rubber would have been much better.

Solid mounts on a non-counter balanced engine? That makes about as much sense as a screen door on a submarine. A better option would be to keep the stock mounts and add a engine stabilizer like the True Track.

Have you already done a stage 1?

Yes that +1. I have a mate who used them in a VW Vr6 and the motor had the feel of a solid mount. When it's time for me to change my dyna mounts i will try to buy the best rubber mounts that money can buy at the time. Not sure that that would be. Do screamin eagle have any ?.

They're urethane mounts avalible for FL models. Bagger motor's aren't counterbalanced. Maybe it depends on the composition of the urethane.

Dyna's are not counterbalanced either.
