08 1200 Roadster front motor mount

[oldskool]

Ok we need to replace the front isolator's ! So we have the left out and we have the stabilizers unbotlted fron and rear and it's still hanging up any suggestion would be appreciated!

The 2008 manual insists you need the HD Fat Jack, so whatever jack you have laying about then so you can support the front of the engine.
I think Step 9 of 9 has the answer:-

Carefully pry front end of engine to the left approximately 1.0 in (25.4mm). Remove right front isolator from crankcase.

A tip since I replaced my front mount and rear mount recently!

There is a 9/16? bushing that is a tight fit In the middle if the mount! On the right side of the bike the mount will be hard to remove! (I had the same problem) take a socket with extension... The same size at the metal mushing and hammer it out! Till the mount is void of its spacer/ bushing! The mount should drop out and bob's ur uncle!

The on re install you gunna want 4 hands but u gotta lift and pull the motor to the left side and it will be a tight fit... But the mount should squeeze I there.

Or do like I did ( I had no help) and remove carefully the bushing out of the new mount and the reinstall it carefully when the mount is In the bike!
