Lowered into position, seen from beneath. If this works well I'll do something more elegant than the tape to hold the rubber in place (when not on the road!).

Taped some dense rubber stripping onto the top (the tape is just to hold it in place while the motor comes down, so I don't have to have my fingers in there).

Made a new wedge out of materials I had with me on the road (1" x 2" scrap, planed top edge at 45? to contact motor better than the original, "sharp" edge).

It's now permanently deformed.
