Excessive vibration after head pipe swap
I recently swapped my 09 stock head pipe for the rinehart slimline head pipe....bike see,so to have a lot more vibration when running.....I feel it in the seat and handlebars....any ideas what the cause might be?
EFI map wise seems to be running nice....just a lot o vibration

I also had vibrations after changing head pipe. Searched through posts until I ran across a couple that provided details on the sequence of bolt tightening. Followed the recommendations and reduced vibration by 95%. In addition, the exhaust flange nuts came loose quick even though I had them to correct torque. Immediately causes a vibration on my bike. I followed recommendations to go through a few heat/cool down cycles and retorque but I still check their torque every so often.

Just put a set of Slimline Duals and Rinehart Slip Ons on my 2015. Straight from the installation instructions...
