Rubber Dampers Attached to Frame that Fuel Tank Sits on?
« on: June 30, 2013, 12:11:49 PM »
My powder coater took them off. I am going to just order new ones. How are they attached? Are they just glued on to the frame??

OEM sites sell them brand new and thanks I thought they were glued since there are no holes in the frame for a "nipple". The questions is...what kind of glue would be best? I was thinking super glue or liquid nails, but I get the feeling super glue would be better for such a small piece.

I used grip glue. Use the tank itself to hold the rubber dampers in place while the grip glue dries.
