Interesting but simple method for installing the isolators between frame and swingarm! http://www.doncasto.net/hoserisolator.html

For me i spray some lube right at point of contact and use a thin putty knife and it slides tight in. I have never had trouble with them. |

I saw an old video of the factory installing the frames upon the engines. It didn't look like they did much of anything other than align stuff up with hands and eyeballs. I know I got off easy with my X1's removable frame hatch though. |

It was actually harder on my X1 then the m2 and S1. Probably because I have done it a ton on the older ones. I thought it would be easier. |

Can't see it being easier on an the M2 or S1. I can change the isolators on my X1 in 30 minutes, soup to nuts. Pop the lower front and swingarm tie bar and the frame plate, and off you go. |

Pretty sure my issue is just more experience with the older tuber. |
