I am a newbie to motor bicycling and think I stumbled across something. Has any one ever used rubber motor mounts. The reason I ask is the other day I was out on a ride and one of my motor came loose, my motor had lots more power and the screech went away and at wot the hesitation was gone seamed to help a lot of things is there any info or a thread on this.

you say that when your motor mounts came loose your bike ran better? with the motor mounts tight is your chain tight? your chain should have about 1" of slack a little more or less but do not try to run the chain like a bow string as in tight as jell if you know what I mean.
