Hello again. I have my frame dissasembled for paint and I am thinking about replacing the old isolastic rubber on my 74 commando. It does not have the adjustable type vernier. The bike I am restoring has only 2000 original miles. The rubber in the Iso looks pretty darn good and soft but I would hate to have trouble later only to have to take the bike apart to replace them at a later date. My question is how much modification is required to go to the MKIII style adjustable iso AND WHY ARE THEY SO DAMN EXPENSIVE?? Where is the cheapest place to order the upgrade and still get good quality??? I may just replace the rear iso for access purposes now and replace the front later in the spring because it is easy to get to and I will be more adjusted to the finance end of the deal?? What do you guys think??? Replace them or just keep what I have. Is there any problem with just replacing the rear for assembly and then the front in the spring before I actually ride?? Thanks for any insight---Mark Cigainero
