Very stupid question - Is everything snugged up tight?

I have a service manual, torque wrenches and over four decades of Harley experience. I'm not saying there's anything wrong with my bike, just that my hands go numb with the new Softails.

If you just have slip on mufflers, your warranty will not be affected.
I just purchased a new 2019 heritage 114. I was getting vibration at 35 mph and up. Turned out, front tire had no weights on it. Took it to the dealer and they balanced the front and much better. Still have a little vibration but I think it’s normal for a frame mounted motor with no rubber motor mounts.
Good luck with your issue.
