German Plate fell off

German Plate fell off
So here is the story,
I picked my 2012 Street bob up last Wednesday (April 24th). I got one of the big square German plates. When the dealer installed it, they secured the bottom 2/3 of the plate, but not the top. I noticed it rattle on the 150ish mile ride home when i would get on the throttle. Today, when my wife and I stopped for dinner (after only a 20km/no higher than 60mph trip) that my plate and the lower bracket holding the plate on were gone. I am wondering if the bike really vibrates that much!? Or is there maybe a problem that I am not seeing? All I have done to it myself is add Cap over the derby cover and added the Passenger peg mounts and pillion for my wife. I am asking here because I'm not sure it would have been an issue with a smaller (U.S. spec) plate. Thoughts?
