True-Track Stabilizer vibration question
Installed the True-track stabilizer on my '04 Superglide. Just curious, it seems like I feel a bit more vibration through the pegs and seat. Does anyone know, is this normal. Thinking that maybe I'm being overly sensitive. Otherwise, I do like it, and the bike does feel a bit more solid, only put about 100 miles on since the install.

I never noticed increased vibration but I could see the possibility with the way a True Track helps secure the motor mounts in the lateral direction. Hopefully it is not too bad because I think the TT really pays off in hard cornering.

As the 'Pilot' has said, you might notice a bit more vibes because of the way the TT bracket mounts directly to the frame and through the motor mount, but I've never found it to be objectionable at all considering all the benefits the TT has to offer. Possible a softer (as in worn out) motor mount might result in more vibes being transferred through the TT/frame contact points.

To align/realign the stock mounts the FSM says to loosen all the bolts a bit and to run the engine for like 5 seconds and then retighten. I can only assume that is to shake everything into place. FSM says this procedure will eliminate any unintended vibration. Wonder if this same procedure should be used for the new mounts.
