Hey everyone! I was wondering from those of you who have replaced them, what are you using for your exhaust mount isolators on the rear. I found that this part is not made anymore. There is a little bit of play back there and think its could be contributing to why the front exhaust mount (shoe) keeps snapping. I have followed Buellistic's exhaust installation instructions and it works trouble free for a while, but I think this is the last piece that should be addressed. Thanks! |

I think American Sport Bike still sells the rubber dingies for the "Z" bracket. Also I seem to recall that hey have replacement old style front hanger rubber dingies. |

Should have rubber isolators with steel sleeves in them, if not that's why your having problems with your exhaust. |

I do have the rubber isolators with the metal bushings. I just think that mine are wearing out. I would expect a much stiffer fit. Mine allow about 1/16" play. I did see them on American Sport Bike's site, but it says its not made anymore. I looking to see if anyone has found another supplier. I measured mine, and they are 7/8" diameter by 7/8" wide. Maybe its time to start searching the Granger website |

thank you all for your replies. I think that I'll stop by the stealership first before I try to fit something. |
