Even where it is mounted now, vibration was only a minor issue. And at the moment it is only secured to the belt guard which is really only a single point and therefore the entire bracket moves. Once I secure it better, there shouldn’t be any vibration at all.

tires are band new, probably what put the bike down. yeah they look fine. lol

motor needs a stator cover but turns over and looks intact. coolant and most of the oil was still in it. You can get a cover for $40 on ebay for them. I am bidding on one now. plan was to just put the cover on it and sell it as a complete motor for like $400.

Got caught in the rain today. So after it stopped, we cleaned the bikes up and put the covers on for the night.
