    Thanks for the video, I think I need to change my motor mount also. By the way, what brand of floor jack are you using. I bought one but couldn't get it under the frame.

      Brian Wanberg it’s the harbor freight aluminum jack

      get a low profile jack, it will fit.

      MIDROLL ADDS = DISLIKE.
      I let all adds run , but midrolls are so disruptive and loud, I never let them run,
      if I can catch them, nor watch them, even if my mother would put up a video
      with them , it would get 'dislike' .

      Just ride upon a short 2x6 and your jack should work. Or get a motorcycle jack that is good for removing the wheels.

    Nice little service video. You're the first guy I've seen doing a tech video on replacing engine mounts, well done Mikey. I see your got the same fuel crossover line as me, I haven't put mine on yet though, hi to Chewy & family. I was due to fly to.Prague last Sun for replacement lens surgery on my eye( it's a third of the price over there compared to the UK) but the Czech government closed their borders due to the coronovirus, it's getting worse over here, stay safe all of you & all the best 👍

We still have to work being in public safety sector. Hoping this passes quickly would like to do the trip into Canada Nova Scotia this June Any how be safe and god bless my friend

  • @Old940
    @Old940 Рік тому +1

    Install new lock washers, clean all parts and bolts, use parts manual to insure all parts and hardware are correctly installed, used service manual for torque specs. Might suggest you use new locking nuts, or Lock Tight, I like new new hardware when available.

      @TechnMoto it's gotta be something with the front or rear mounts. Bike runs great above 2k rpms. We'll the bike runs great below 2k too, just a shake through the fairing when slowing down between 1500 and 2k.

      approx. 22 ft lbs and 33 ft lbs on the mounting plate bolts I believe. You should get yourself a manual for your model motorcycle so you can verify specs cause specs are different depending on models
