One of the front lower motor mounts on my '98 883 (1200 conversion) is
broken -- most of the mount is there, but the ear that bolts to the frame is
sheared off and missing. I don't even have the bolt.

Anyone have recommendations for a replacement? I only seem to be finding
them in pairs, which makes sense -- after all, why would you want only one
-- but I'd prefer to save money and buy only one. Unless ... well, maybe the
remaining unbroken one has been stressed and it's a good idea to replace
both of them; I don't really know. What say you?

Matthew
