Hey TJ, welcome to the pound from your Miss. neighbor. I have a 08 Mastiff and I had an terrible vibration when I rode!! Come to find I had lost my upper motor mount screw!! Can"t remember size, you can take the other bolt out and try it in its place. I think they were the same size. If it is, use blue loctite!! What part of Alabama do you call home? 
My Lowe's don't have chrome bolts
and my local hardware store closed I'm left with buying everything online.Sent from my 831C using Tapatalk

Thanks..!
If you haven't found the Top Motor Mount Bolt yet you can get them at Boltdepot.com The size you need for a PitBull, Ridgeback / K9 is 1/2 -20 X 1 1/4 SHCS Chrome; for a Chopper is the same except the length is 1 1/2 and for the Mastiff the length is 1 3/4. The Boltdepot.com is where I got mine. Use 2760 Loctite 80 Ft-Lbs torque like mentioned above. Make sure you also get two 1/2 inch flat SS washer, and the Nut. Mine has a acorn style nut with plastic on the exit tip. I don't know but I don't think your would need the 3/8 spacer a mastiff requires being that the bolt is shorter than for a Mastiff. The nut I would say use the acorn style they hold better and don't need a lock washer.

Use a stainless one if you can't get chrome and just polish the head, you should know how to do that. LOL
As Boo says locktite as well as a NYLOC nut in SS, and HD ss flat washers.
Use feeler gauges prior and see if you have a gap between mount and frame and adjust as required.
