Default new motor mount issues

I just installed the new up graded motor mount on a 2000 95 cc Rg . It vibrated on the floor so bad .I called the dealer and he said to run it loose for 10 sconds then retighen no luck . Im running it loose that cured the proublem' I'll re tighten when it after the bubber softens up. The old motor mount had fallen apart bolts was loose and broken I liked the ride berfor the new mount.It just don't seem right you know.

My SG has gone thru two of the old type, put the new type on and it vibrated to the point that it couldn't be driven under 2200 rpm. Much better after the seconf after market mount. Just traded for an 06 Ultra. HD said the vibration was within acceptable limits.

After not being happy with excess vibration under 2,000rpm, and having the dealer install the new style motor mount, I installed one of the "Velva-Glide" aftermarket mounts on my 2006 Street Glide. It feels much better with much less vibration at all RPMs below 2,000rpm.
