I used rubber mounts on both sides of the mounting bolts to my cone engine, as well as the bolts to the handlebars and seat as well. If you want, you can use a handlebar snake as well.

Exactly... I'm glad I posted to get some more updated insight from experienced members in the minibike world. Information is always updating and folks learn and share new ideas.

Kill Switch +1 on safety feature. I would have a kill switch on my bikes before I have brakes IMHO.
