Vibration between 15-25 mph
Hello all, i have a 2000 heritage and i am getting some vibrating in between 15-25 mph.
It happens when i am braking, when i just coast down into those speeds (no brakes applied), and if i pull the clutch and coast at those speeds i feel it too. I just want to foot stomp that this is not a wobble, it feels more like a cellphone vibrating than anything else, except it goes through the whole bike.
Only thing i have done since the last time i rode it is put a new 18 rear wheel on. I have never felt this before and i have had this bike for about 2 years.
Any ideas?

Can i check the wheel balance while still on the bike? I am guessing no, but gotta ask :-)

Check whatever serves as lug nuts if such a thing. I ride, but don't maintain my tires; use a mechanic.
But I had a car one time, did my own brakes, didn't tighten all the lug nuts well. It was just like you describe.
