front isolator problem?
Please take a look at the attached pics. I was looking under the bike trying to see how the foot peg mounts come off so I could have them powder coated and noticed the front motor mount (isolator) appears torn. I'm very new to riding so I can't really comment on excessive vibration but I have noticed what feels like rattling in the foot pegs after I had new pipes and a big sucker kit put on. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks.

I should have added that the bike is a 2004 fxdx with under 7000 miles. I am the second owner and had one oil change done at an indy about a 1000 miles ago when i bought it. There seems to be lots of posts about these mounts. Is there any consensus as to how long the replacement mount will last? Should I go ahead and replace the rear at the same time or only if it is bad too? Thanks
