we all know that vibration is a killer , it is also very unpleasant ,, and it also causes noise level to rise ,so it would be the single biggest improvement that anyone could make on these 2 cycle mb .. and as it stands now the method is to bolt down tight the motor to the frame and let the frame absorb the vibration , then bolt everything with lock nuts ,lock tight onto the bike ,, in my view it is not the answer , if we all believe that this is the only way to do it,, we are not going to solve the problem ,,
it is not a hypothesis nor a theory but a law that if part 1 vibrate ,and it is mounted to part 2 by means of rubber compound or alike ,that only a fraction of the vibration will be induced to part2
from what i understand from senior members is that when these motors are set in rubber that they are not stable enough ,and will twist and bend putting everything out of alignment etc . so what then,, take out the rubber, take out the wrenches ,and tighten everything down with lock tight etc. ,, in my view that is not going to solve the problem
the answer will be found by adding another motor mount to the top part of the cylinder also set in rubber .now if you look at the angles of all 3 mounts and where they are located ,you can see why that the third mount set in rubber will secure the aliment etc. .making the motor plenty stable
i have about 5 projects going in my machine shop at this time ,, but i going to find time to prove the point , that 3 motor mounts set in rubber will be a great improvement ,, my hope is that if all works well that a simple adapter plate set in rubber ,,,that fits between the frame and the motor can be made available to all members ,, and i am sure there are lots of members out there now that can think of ways to add the third mount to the top part of the cylinder ,, and that whats makes this forum great the collections of minds ,to improve product and pass it on to the importers ,and manufacturers ,and let them add the third mount ,
we should never say this is good enough , but always try to improve ,and if we don"t get it right this time ,we will get it right next time ,and a very good example of that is auge light system ,with many ups and downs ,,he never gave up
