Default Drag specialties front motor mount

i posted on this late last year after determining that I needed a new front motor mount. Most people said the DS motor mount sucked, don’t buy it , get a better one. Some people said it just takes 500 or so miles to break in. At first I thought it DID suck. Well some people were right. I think i’m at 700 ish miles since I put it on and it seemed to finally break in over night, from one ride to the next. I think it was like 20 or 25 bucks on eBay. I was contemplating changing it out for a better one and all of a sudden it smoothed right out. Just an FYI.

I put one on my ultra last year and it’s been fine. Maybe a more expensive one would be smoother, but I bought a Harley, not a Honda.

I've got one on my ultra as well. As long as it holds up better than the stock POS, I'm happy. As you say, it's a Harley, not a Honda
