I used a rubber vibration damper mount for the silencer. I didn't want to fabricate a mount or buy a new silencer. And this seems to hold up well, so far. The tank is off a 2011. It did hit the shock mount. I ended up trimming the mount and re-welding it so the brace sits lower. I did have to move the big coil to the side. And I put a 2005 cylinder and head on it, courtesy of AZRickD. The coolant connection on the head stuck up to far to allow the tank to sit flush.
The conversion was pretty straight forward and simple. I collected all the parts I needed over a period of time. I almost bought the kit, but knew I wouldn't use the headlight and my wife really wanted black plastics with the Six Days graphics.
