Default Front Engine Mount Question

Ok, the basics , I have a 95 Ultra . When changing my front motor mount .(Non HD Part) I noticed that the hole in the mount was much larger than the bolt on my bike. Looking at TCSD's excelent tech tip, it seems to show a metallic sleeve that would appear to go into the mount and would probably take up all the play between my 3/8 bolt and the motor mount. Again, this is HD's own tech bulletin. My HD parts manual does not list this sleeve in the drawings. IS there actually a sleeve or is the HD tech bulletin wrong? I'm getting a noise I can't identify down low and am trying to eliminate any and all sources. Since I'm not the original owner and I know the engine had been out of the frame at one point, Did the PO lose the sleeve? If so, where can I get one since my parts manual doesn't show one?

Thanks for your help

Bubba

HD replaced the motor mounts starting in 06. They do not have the sleeves in them. The new # is 16207-79C and is $28.03 at Zanotti's. If you are looking for just a sleeve check Home Depot or a hardware store for one the same length and diameter that you need.
