Does it have a vulcanized dampener like an OEM one as well? I'm wondering how long these Predator things live, but can't get a picture of what the dampener looks like. When it goes out, do you need to replace the complete mount, or just the dampener (if it has one)?

Yes, it uses a rubber donut with molded-in steel mounting points. It is technically serviceable but I don't know the specs of the dampener.
It's been a while since I looked at it, but I recall it looking similar to this item from Ace Control (out of the UK as well)
I would suspect Predator would sell just the isolator/dampened but I haven't tried to contact them about it.

As the pictures by CG show (thanks, good representation), the engine is supported by a horizontal donut, instead of being held in shear vertically. Such a better design... and you get a panhard rod (lateral stabilizer) built in.
I have one on order as we speak, my bikes a shaker and has some miles on her...but I actually didn’t mind it until I bought my wife’s switchback. That thing was like glass....
