Hey guys, just bought my first Harley. 2008 Cobalt Blue SE Dyna. I was expecting some vibration but at a standstill it seems to rock the handlebars about an inch(atleast). Cruising along at 60 (top speed for now) there is enough vibration still where there is a blur in the mirrors and my hands start to itch a bit after 20 minutes or so. Friends are saying its the motor 110cu. Am i crazy

Harley's vibrate, fact of life. As for the mirrors, I have yet to ride a motorcycle thats mirrors don't vibrate and blur at speed. As for your hands you're holding on too tight, relax.

 

Welcome to the Family.&nbsp\\; H-Ds vibrate, more so than other bikes.&nbsp\\; That's part of the charm and experience, you'll enventually&nbsp\\;come to love it.&nbsp\\; H-D puts mirrors on their bikes only because the Feds make them do it, not because you can actually use them .

 

Probably should have bought a B motor Softail. My mirrow don't blur at any speed.

CONGRATS ON THE CHOICE.. Your going to love the ride and people you meet.

 

The bike vibrates? Ask the dealer to fix that immediately.

Joking!

 

Give it a few thousand miles to break in and loosen up.

They do shake to a certain extent, but its much worse when the motor is new and tight.

 

Amen to that.....my Heritage rides like a Cadillac.

 

I think that you should make an appointment with the eye doctor fast.&nbsp\\; I've ridden my son's Dyna and the mirrors were not blurred nor are they on my softail Custom.

Right on Marsh. My softail Deuce mirrors don't vibrate at any speed or at idle while sitting at a stop light.
