Fender on right side shakes a lot at idle. At low speed hitting bumps twists the bike a lot. When shifting into first gear it sounds like something is rattling in the transmission. I just bought this bike . It is a 2016 with 1500 miles. Gary Rose

How much shake is a lot? My 2016 has both fenders shake at idle and my 2013 did also. As far as twisting at low speed bumps, that is pretty much a result of the solid rear axle. Can't help with the rattle in the transmission. The Triglide does take some getting used to

They will tell you "they all do that", but at least you get another set of eyes on it.

As stated above. Going over bumps ,dips a triglide feels different. After a bit you don't even notice it.
