Is this part needed?

Post by rehed »

The motor mount damper in the sprocket cover - is there any benefit to using it?

Very important. Google the word damper and that will tell you why.

Why would you want to remove it?

I didn't remove it - a previous owner did. I recently obtained another sprocket cover and noticed it in that one. I didn't notice any problems riding without it.
