A Motorcycle Engine Mount having Improved Stiffness. The device is a bolt-in replacement for the Original Equipment Manufacturer engine mounts for FXD_series Harley Davidson motorcycles. The device has a single-piece, hardened steel outer frame, and a interstitial formed from urethane (rather than rubber) having a durometer reading of 40-60. The outer frame and inner frame attachment elements are both formed with a plurality of apertures through them so that they will be infilled with urethane when the urethane is injected to form the interstitial element. This infilling will bond the three elements together for long-term durability. There are also front and rear retention plates made from hardened metal to further stabilize and bond the inner frame attachement element to the urethane interstitial element.
