Billet Proof Designs Black ISO Front Engine Mount for Harley 1980–2008 — Rubber Bushing, OEM Fit

Billet Proof Designs Black ISO Front Engine/Motor Mount is a direct-fit replacement that reduces engine vibration by isolating the motor with a rubber bushing while matching OEM mounting points.

This ISO-style front engine mount is engineered to separate the metal mount and inner sleeve with a rubber isolator, lowering the amount of vibration transferred to the frame and rider compared with firmer materials. It’s finished in durable black to blend with factory hardware and installs in place of the original HD part number 16207-79B. Designed for compatibility across a wide range of Harley-Davidson models, this mount is a practical maintenance or upgrade item for older rubber-mounted Touring and select Super Glide bikes.

Which Harley models and years does this mount fit?

The mount fits rubber-mounted Harley-Davidson Touring and Super Glide models produced between 1980 and 2008. It covers common platforms that used the OEM-style front engine mount during those years.

• Tour Glide (FLT) models 1980–2008
• Road Glide (FLTR) models 1980–2008
• Road King (FLHR) models 1980–2008
• Electra Glide (FLHT) models 1980–2008
• Street Glide (FLHX) models 1980–2008
• Super Glide (FXR) models with rubber mounts 1980–2008

How does the rubber bushing affect vibration and ride feel?

The rubber bushing is designed to absorb and dampen engine movement, passing fewer high-frequency vibrations into the frame than stiffer compounds. That typically yields a smoother, less buzzy feel at cruise speeds and when idling, without changing mounting geometry.

• Rubber transmits less vibration than polyurethane alternatives
• Reduces harshness felt through pegs and handlebars
• Maintains OEM-style compliance for predictable handling

Is this a direct replacement for OEM part HD# 16207-79B?

Yes — this Billet Proof Designs mount is manufactured to match the dimensions and mounting points of the original HD# 16207-79B. It’s intended as a bolt-in replacement so you can reuse existing bolts and retain factory alignment when installed correctly.

• Direct-fit design for easy swap with OEM hardware
• Black finish matches stock appearance
• No frame or engine modification required for proper fit

What should I check before installing this front engine mount?

Before installing, confirm your motorcycle is one of the compatible models and years, inspect mounting bolts and tabs for wear, and have the correct torque specs handy. Replacing a worn mount is best done on a supported engine with a jack or stand to relieve load during the swap.

• Verify model/year compatibility (1980–2008 rubber-mounted Harleys)
• Inspect existing hardware for corrosion or thread damage
• Use lift or jack to support engine during removal and installation

Who is this for: Motorcyclists maintaining or restoring rubber-mounted Harley-Davidson Touring and compatible Super Glide models from 1980–2008 who want a reliable, OEM-style front engine mount with effective vibration isolation. It’s suited to DIY mechanics, shops performing routine engine mount replacement, and owners preferring a black-finished component that replaces HD# 16207-79B without modification.
