...constructed the mount (without the little square) leaves a couple of mm play around the bolt. This is (with the abuse of my Schrick cammed engine) not going to be stopped by a nut that's tightened to 44NM :down:
Shame the people at Vibratechnics did not copy this construction from the oem mount
...on this on is 44NM (?) The OEM mount had a "square" hole where the engine-part of the mount would precisely slide/fit over.. The Vibratechnics has a round hole, with room for play : the bolt has movement in it even when tightened up. I can see metal shaving from the movement , not good...

is the bolt that connect the tripod to the batt mount still in one piece?
mine started banging too turned out to be that bolt had been slitghly loose making the hole in the tripod oval and breaking the bolt.
due to the Vibratechnics there was no sag on that side so very hard to diagnose....

That would look brilliant with one of the Marc R battery covers. The oil catch can would probably sit better on the battery cover as it can be bolted at the bottom too.
They do look a work of art! I see you have them on yours :tongueout: are you able to compare them to then vibratechnic mounts, and could you fit them yourself or would you need a garage to fit them?
Cheers bud :grin: have a good one at Mallory :up: hopefully see you next year at either Snetterton or Cadwell :cool:
