Front Motor Mount Road Glide

[mrmotoguzzi00]

Yup I can see a slight tear.....   poking around i see the part is 16207-79 B, C and D....   D being latest I assume...  also found this glide pro thing  ... and alloy art...


Anybody use any of these 3 ?  thoughts ?

D is $64 at Surdyke...
Glide Pro $100 at their site
Alloy Art $105 at PartsGiant....

oh 2004 Road Glide...

I just installed the Alloy Art in 2003 Road King.  Better than the worn out original, but not much better.  I have been thinking about going back to stock mount.

The dash D is a little stiffer than earlier versions but said to be more durable. I bought up a few good used early mounts a few years ago just in case.

I have had a D in for 50K or so, and it is fine.  A little stiff at first, after 1500 miles or so smooth as the original.

$64 gets my vote. The others get good and bad reviews, in fact all three probably get mixed reviews, so buy the cheaper one!

I just put a glide pro on my 02 king. There is a little difference from stock.

$64.00 sounds like a deal.. I can't find my receipt but the last "D"  I bought I want to say cost be close to $90.00

Been running a glide pro for about 40,000 miles, pretty nice!

Good to know.

I put the "D" in about 60,000 miles or so ago, works fine. I had one of the "Velvet" mounts, I think it was, transferred way too many vibes, but it was cheap. It's still hanging on the wall.

Went with the 16207-79D .... got frustrated with the surdyke site and the person who was on chat....  sorry but the person was a  bit clueless...

Ended up at Ronnies HD...   website had a great parts look program that showed you the HD style exploded view of stuff, real easy to find what your looking for and get the right part number...

Yep, I have been using Ronnie's for parts when the local dealer doesn't have it, or when I just don't want to deal with a parts guy that don't  from shineola.

I started using them years ago when I needed parts for a build and figured i would look them up and give the local dealer's parts guy the list, then I thought, why bother, and just bought them from Ronnie's.

  They have been providing the Part's Finder for a long time as a service.  It's good to hear from  someone that is giving back.

...I drool over their prices but Ronnies' won't sell outside the USA due to Corporate HD's Policy -
"Due to Harley-Davidson® policies, we will not be able to ship outside the lower 48 states. We also will not be able to ship to forwarding companies or other addresses that intend to ship outside the USA. If you are getting a error message of "12-1", this is because we do not accept any orders that are being placed from an international IP address.

We take their policies very seriously. We can and will refuse any order not meeting their criteria."

Regardless, I've used their Part's Finder for years.....and continue to drool.
