i've been riding another bike more, so i'm not sure if this is normal or not.1994 fxds,new front wheel bearings,new balanced tire,new handlebar bushings,replaced fork oil.there is a vibration in the front end and noticed it in the highway pegs more at faster speed. thinking front motor mount? any way to check it or just replace?
Easy check of the front mount.

If the mount has sagged as per the photo above it will vibrate. Dynas should be virtually vibration free at anything above 2000rpm. If not there is a problem.

all Harleys vibrate its the nature of the beast. a neighbor of mine bought a 93 dyna last year hes been throwing money at it ever since. i swapped bikes with him on a ride after 30 miles he understood how smooth his bike was compared to a softail.

Yup it's holding up great. I still have it and have no complaints. Its given it more stability straight line and cornering. It's also smooth over 2100 and below 1950. Just a little patch of vibes left.
