Default Vibration free. Front isolator problem fixed.Pics

Straight to it. There is such a thing as to much vibration. Mine had it and I have looked for months for the answer. This is what fixed it for me.
A new front Isolator. http://i193.photobucket.com/albums/z...isolator-1.jpg


The old one did not show any damage but had some wear on the top of the rubber. Look at the difference for the mounting block that bolts to the frame, the new one sits about a 1/4" lower. The original isolator was grounding out on the bottom of the front engine mount bracket and creating a bad vibration. New isolator for $109.00 which I purchased from my Indy. This new isolator allows the engine to float in the mounts now. Truthfully no "bad" vibes now. I will go into more detail for anyone needing help but for now I have to go ride my NEW bike.To see if you have the same problem I do have pics of what to look for here... https://www.hdforums.com/m_3490585/tm.htm

Mine touches at the top of the isolator like your old one did. Does the new one provide a gap?

Thanks for the post Expy.&nbsp\\; I've wondered for some time now if my 06 Low Rider may be experiencing this.&nbsp\\; I now know what to look for.&nbsp\\; Thanks again.
