Default Slight vibration....

Felt after having new tires put on ( commander III’s). Feeling in the handle bars only while going straight. Smooth in the curves, as if it was on rails! It is not bad.... but noticeable. I’m calling my Indy who installed tires tomorrow to inquire.

Only have about 160 miles on them.

Really doesn’t feel as if speed has anything to do with vibration. But most noticeable 30-45 mph.

Pulling in clutch has no affect.

I can weave back and forth and notice it come and go.... Smooth while bike is leaning.

Anyone ever experience anything like this??

It’s sorta funny... my old Dunlop’s were cupped on outter edges when I purchased the bike last year. (~9k miles ago) So I was used to some vibration in the curves. But now, this is a totally different feeling.


2010 FLHTK 29k miles on the clock.
