ORIGINAL: murphdog

Why do all the vibration threads turn into a "you're lugging your engine" thread?
2500-2800 or 2800-3200 rpm is not lugging.
I can run 55 mph to 60 mph after it got good and brokin in your not lugging

I've had a serious high frequency vibration in my bike for quite some time. I can feel it in the pegs, it's so bad on the pasenger pegs that the g/f can't ride more than 40 mins without her feet stinging.

I was told Dynas vibrate when I first bought the bike... its because the engine is rubber mounted... So far I am fine with it... The annoying vibration is when I have the detachable seat installed when noone is riding behind me... that thing vibrates like hell!!!

I also just installed an engine guard... also vibrates like crazy... thats our dynas I guess!
