What is needed if your front isolator has gone is it in the form of a kit or can you buy the individual parts here is the image that I was going off of from the XB9R pdf manual


What part numbers am I looking for and whats the wallet damage?

I think the rubber inside the casting has worn but how do you really check. I know that it will feel like a jack hammer when it goes completely but would rather catch it before then.

Baike has covered 18,000 miles.

Out of interest I have looked at other later Buells and they do not seem to have the rubber washer on the underside of the large mushroom isolator bolt did the design change?

Allternativly, turn some plastic to form a ring that sits on top of the flanged bolt and supports the rubber between the inner bush and outer housing, worked for me.

Nate.

Thanks Maz for the part info.

Is there any way to know for sure that the parts on it way out. It just feels like it has too much movement.

That chap selling the uly screens does something like you describe Nate. Pash has one on his Firebolt. Might give it a go until the parts can be bought.
