Author Message   Maru Posted on Sunday, July 19, 2009 - 05:28 pm:        Hi guys. I have a 96S2t and a 97 Lightning which is currently under construction. i bought all new isolators from American Sportbike with the intent of installing them while the engine was out. When I bought them I figured I would just replace them as a preventative measure. Now I am thinking i will just put the old ones back in. What do you folks think, am i better off with 12 year old but apparently still ok isolators or the new non-79D type isolators? Do the Firebolts not come with the new softer isolators? If so, are they having problems?   Skntpig Posted on Sunday, July 19, 2009 - 07:24 pm:        There are many iso threads. The newer rears are much better than the older ones. I would put them in and if the old front looks good keep it in there.   Fullauto Posted on Sunday, July 19, 2009 - 08:30 pm:        Judging from current problems, I'm with Skntpig. Good call.   Sloppy Posted on Monday, July 20, 2009 - 01:14 am:        +1 Skntpig   F_skinner Posted on Monday, July 20, 2009 - 08:59 am:        Maru, good advice from everyone. What ever you do keep the one you did not install as a ready spare.   Maru Posted on Monday, July 20, 2009 - 08:47 pm:        Thanks guys, new ones at the back, original up front, at least for now.
