Speculation this AM was the GBP would start to move higher against the U.S. Dollar so today was the day; ordered the Predator HDD100M front engine mount.

Mount with exchange rate, exchange fee, and shipping was $233.33 U.S. ...

Interesting product/company. Also sad that with all the engineers at MoCo, and poor quality mounts being a known problem, that it took another company to correct a manufacturing problem that can be potentially a fatal one.

Let us know how you like it, once installed. tp

And congrats for hanging on to that woodburner.
We sir will never forget their sacrifices... My family is from parts of WV and south western Virginia... My bike is a rolling tribute to all those Confederates who fought and died in Lincolns War.

This bike has been to the following battlefields and sites... South Mountain, Chancellorsville, burial place of Stonewall Jacksons Arm, Sharpsburg, Fredericksburg, Gettysburg, Point Lookout, Elmira, Monocacy, Berryville, Alexandria and next week I will be in Tennessee...


You can see some other details of the bike here

After installing woods 555 cams spent lots of time trying understand why bike rides like ****. Tune is one part of it, but there was more. Finally got to conclusion that clutch was slipping. Adjusted, re-adjusted- same ****, after 3k rpm bikewas not accelerating as it supposed to. Ordered barnett Kevlar extra plate kit, installed yesterday- what a difference! I can ride her now and try to autotune until I have $$ for dyno tune.
i had SE spring that I reused, tried redline primary oil

I put the Carbon Fiber extra plate kit in from Barnett two weeks ago and added the heavy duty spring they offer. Clutch feels much better, but man, that heavy duty spring is no joke.

Decided I want to see more then 10 feet in front of me at night. So with 2 feet of snow outside, today's the day to finally install the led headlight. And make a list of all the other **** I have to finish on the bike.
