Default Re: vibration

I like to bed in the motor mounts by using a length of tubing same as on the bike. wrap the sand paper on the tube and sand away until the tube nests in the mounts. I've used Jb weld to bed in the mounts as well if the angle is not quite right get the mount almost tight and lay the epoxy in the mount area when it gets almost set sort of just past the rubbery stage tighten up the bolts/nuts, let it completely ride it then check to make sure the bolts/nut are tight. I recommend loctight blue on all mounts that don't use lock washers or fiber lock nuts.
