Replaced my front engine mount on my 07 road king. My bike does not vibrate at all at idle, but as soon as I give er gas she vibrates at the bars and the the foot stands, vibrations were pretty bad at first but it seems that they have settled down some now. I placed the mount with the flat side down and the tapered side, had a round indent at the very top on the top side. It is a d&s mount, very hard and a lot bigger then the oem mount. Is this normal or did I mess up and install it backwards?
Is it a rubber mount like stock or a different material? Harder mounts don't allow it to move as much but can put a high frequency vote be into the bike at some RPM's.
