Default Loose muffler

I have the V&H Monster Rounds. The rubber grommet on the right side keeps making its way loose from the spot it is supposed to sit in under the bag. I have put it back twice so far (not hard to do but it takes some effort to seat it in place).

Can I buy a new one? Maybe it is bad or defective? It is getting snnoying hearing it clunk every time it shimmies its way loose and I hit a bump.

Anybody else have this issue and rig something different up to hold it in place?

Thanks for any help in advance.

Those muffler isolators do wear out. Just replaced mine a month or so ago for the second time. They run about $3.00 each and your local dealer should have them in stock or can order for you.

It's a common problem 65724-85 should be the part number.

I keep a spare rubber hanger plus a spare jiffy spring in my tour pak just in case.
