Here is glide-pro video. He has a different front motor mount that makes sense. I did the whole system and did notice a buzz vib for the first 500-1000 miles but now is smooth so maybe the Harley mounts need to be broken-in also.

Stupid question. How do you know when you need to change the front motor mount?

I like to suggest spending an extra $6 and 15 minute to replace the rubber exhaust hanger bushing under the saddle bags. They are part of the isolation system and can contribute to the vibration because they wear out pretty fast.

If you have a SM, there is a small description and a pic of the inspection of the motor mount. Personally I think it is a poor description and pic. A better explanation can be had from this link: http://www.glide-pro.com/install/
