its patina. ah - you have a youngen. you wouldn't care much for patina.
note your shiney mounts will clash with your black
or to quote that line from flying high -
i like my coffee black, like my men.

It will balance out, as the other mount is black and stock. So literally best of both worlds.

I prefer the the younger girls
so black coating for me.
Anyway, I ordered one of these to use on the passenger side so will get strength and still have reasonable vibration dampening via the stock mount on the drivers side.

Interested to hear your thoughts on the mount once it is. Mixed messages so far about transmitted vibrations using those mounts

I've got those mounts in the race car, they would be horrible in a road car. They cause a lot of vibration transmission and also give the chassis a very hard time with torque..

May have been better off with one of these as they still use a rubber bush might not be quiet as bad as those Tuff Billet mounts with the urethane type bushings. MACE sells them but they were designed and made by TTT Engineering.

depends what you want, my aim is to have bit more harshness as I don't like driving a couch.
Don't know why you'd say that as the VH felt very smooth with them to me considering you also have no counterweights on the crank.
