Default Anyone make polyurethane engine mount?

After 6 months of replacing my front engine mount, it is shizit again. I remember it was mentioned that a company was going to make a polyurethane mount for the fronts. What is the name of the company and did they ever make one?

So how can you tell when a front mount is bad? I'm not sure if I would know if my front mount was bad or not. I told my Dealer that I felt my 10 FXDC vibs a lot more then I expected and thats after 2 Sportster's. He said he gets a lot of complaints about vibs on 09 and 10 Dyna's and he has no idea why.

I had the dealership tighten my front mount a few weeks ago, and it feels like it's already getting a little loose again (vibes are increasing again). I hope this isn't an ongoing issue.

I would run through the vehicle alignment procedure outlined in your service manual first.
