There's a guy from the old site who was making and running the carbon fiber motor mounts already and the were just fine. The force is being applied to the edge of the carbon fiber, sorta like pressing against the edge of a sheet of paper, and not on the flat of the material, so the load/force is dispersed evenly and without risk of the mount breaking. also, the engine is held pretty firm inside the chassis and isn't twisting and swaying all over the place ya know? even though the suzuki's cheap steel frame DOES flex, it would be perfectly fine.
