OK. So tincup, I'll up your ante...I'll bet you a 20 pack of long necks (I prefer High Life...) it is the isolator, but you'll have to come to central WI and help me replace and align the bike, then we can drink said 20 pack together!

Looking at your signature picture, if that is your ride, I had the front footpegs with the fold away heel stirrup, and I had vibrations I could not track down, realised that the left stirrup was a lot looser than the right, so I swapped them out, and put original footpegs on, and vibration was gone.

smogbob - I'll check that out as well - but my real complaint is the handlebars. To a lesser extent the pegs.

Hey, I know this is a couple years done, but, what was the outcome? I initially shimmed my front and it helped a bit. I altogether replaced it a year ago or so. I used the stock one. That solid rubber block "upgrade" one seems like it would not help.

This one, (Vibra Technics): https://www.vibra-technics.com/harle...t_engine_mount

I also came across this one as well (Glide Pro):

Anyways, let me know what helped? I'm looking to bring down the vibes on my '13 Wide Glide.

Thanks!
