Engine Mount
Stay Safe

A: Mike, the front motor mount on a touring model H.D. has a specific top and bottom side. Make sure you do not have the mount installed upside down. If the mount is installed correctly, but you have more vibration than with the old mount, you may have another problem (hopefully not an engine issue) that is being amplified by the new, stiffer, rubber mount.

I changed the front mount&both rubber mounts in swing arm&now my inner primary is touching my frame
You have to be sure that the bolt that goes down through the middle is centered exactly as you lower the engine back down again
No help there, how about the exhaust system. I hear a lot of talk on after market exhaust and the position of the pipes transferring engine vibration to the frame, foot boards to handle bars. Anyone have a comment on this.
when you change the front motor mount on a touring Harley, It is important to check engine alignment in frame. If you don't have a service book buy one. Engine alignment is in there. A great 50 dollar investment.
