Scooterotica

Has anyone got any advice ref engine mounts ive just built a new 200 engine only mildly tuned i used genuine sil engine mounts fitted in the correct position as per stickys book but after just 295mls the o/s one has completely collapsed & the rubber has broken away from the metal

i was having the same problem and bought an extra long mount and bolt from andy francis

the problem, i now realise, was caused by worn engine mount cones, it might be worth replacing these first and then buying mounts from a reliable source like scooter restorations

must say though handling is great with the extended mount

I did the same and bought new cones as well at the same time

Thanks to both of you for the advice the mounts that failed came from MB so would expect them to be genuine sill i will check the cones when i replace the faulty mounts i do like the sound of the extra long ones from Andy Francis i will check these out thanks again
