Anybody ever use the Velva Ride motor mounts or stabilizers? They claim to reduce vibration more than the factory mounts.My S2 is still using the original mounts and i'm sure they're rock hard.

Do a search on here. They have not received good reviews here.

Sorry to dig up a stale thread, but I had the opportunity to shoot a photo or 2 of the ones that were on my RS for a couple of thousand miles.

Bike was rattling like hell when idling,

Check out how much the center shaft wore against the outer housing.

They may or may not work on a H-D, but they are worthless on a Buell - at least on mine.

The last shot shows how soft the rubber material is - I was exerting very little pressure on it to deform it.
