Hi Guys,

Just getting ready to make up a cradle and mount my zx12r engine.
Has anyone used rubber bushes when mounting their bike engine to stop some of the vibration?

I noticed hellfire used some but i'm not sure when to buy them?

I think 99% of BEC's are solid mount, I've never noticed Hellfire used bushes before, certainly looks like it but it might be just a spacer?

That's the original bush that was on the ZX12R front mount. The rear mounts are solid.

Thanks Phil.
btw, do you happen to have an electronic copy of the zx12r manual?

I'm sure I've got a copy on disc. U2U me your address and I'll stick a copy in the post for you.
