1 motor mount missing?

Does anybody ride with one motor mount missing? I wrecked coasting and my frame slider broke the mount off the motor. The motor still doesnt move but is it safe to ride it like this for a while until I can get someone to weld it and redrill it? Hopefully because I wanna ride. We have had a few 60 degree days and I need to ride as much as I can.

While your on this topic bro let me ask you a question about my situation. My right motor mount is fine, except the threads are stripped the guy who had the bike before me crossed threaded the frame slider mount and one day mine fell out. I don't have a bolt in or anything because nothing threads in, should i be worrying about that? I have a 97' Gix 600 if you could picture what the situation is like for that.

I would re thread it.... think about it like this... if the motor shakes around it puts extra stress on the frame.... Im not even stuntin on a crazy level and my frame has stress cracks in it...

its like anthony said in 12 #2 we are crackin frames LoL
