Any tips/tricks/problems I may run into when I'm going to be changing all the Isolator's?

I'm pretty sure they are all shot, and surprised they lasted this long with the amount of wheelies and hard ass riding I put her through.

So, the question remains, what are some good ideas, tools needed, and proper method for doing these?

I've got the rear iso thread saved on my computer for when I get to that, but when I do this, should I be changing anything else?

Thanks guys...

I would do the belt while your doing the rears. It would suck to have it snap 500 miles after your put it back together.

So I thought I had the steps on here saved, but I guess not.

And, I can't find the thread that has the homemade rear iso tool either.

I searched and searched for it, but can't find it. Can someone find it for me? PLEEEASE

I saved this link...

Think this is what you are looking for.

There was another thread, though that did it a simpler way.

Remove both bolts through the rear isolators.

Insert larger bolt with large washer into left side, tighten to compress the left isolator until the right falls out. Then loosen the bolt and remove the left one.

Reverse the process to install.

I've never replaced mine so keep in mind that this info is worth exactly what you paid for it...

It looks like there is a space in that link between the s and o. Probably need to remove that to get it to work.
