Default Is This Normal?

Do any 06/07 Street Bob owners out there ever notice that when you ride a passenger of about 100 lbs and up there is a bit of a vibration on deceleration when revving the engine with the clutch in?

It's definately associated with the motor revs coming down,
....and just before the engine hits that set idle rpm...there is a shudder that can be felt through the frame. Normal? Normal for a harley with the big twin? The Dynas utilize rubber engine mounts don't they? As opposed to the softail that uses counterbalanced motor set-ups...

Come on back

Hmmm, not really sure, but the girls should like the vibrations!
