My guess is true track is throwing a fit about this mount since they are a sponsor. You figure you are getting the best of both world with this new mount , a stabiliser and a new mount and this will cut into true tracks profits. just my 2 cents. I'll be going with the new mount myself

Let's leave the speculation out of this for the sake of keeping the thread alive. Just giving my honest opinion on a product.

Matt, thanks to you and all those that have been testing, doing write ups and forming your opinions about this mount. New ideas, how to's and general opinions are what this forum is built upon!

Thank you for the video as well.

I do think this will be a major fix to all of the "unnecessary" vibrations that the Dyna's have.

Will be placing my order soon...

Just took my bike out for a test run after installing the new motor mount. Not as much vibration at the handlebars, even at idle. With the motor running you can see the upper portion of the mount moving with the vibration of the engine. All that vibration used to go straight to my frame and then handlebars....no longer!

Came home today excited to find this new mount on the front step and found a note from FedEx instead.... Signature required.. Dammit I wish it would have said that in the emails from the manufacture or fedex. Guess I'll go pick it up in the am..

Glad it works as well for you. I think the vibration isolation alone puts this as my favorite mod.

If I didn't already change my motor mount last season I'd be all over this.
Looks like a good project for next winter.
