Is it possible that sometimes when we readso much that we believe our bike has problems only because we read about it and now you are sure yours falls in the same catagory ?
I love my 07 Street Glide, but I also had a vibration , it vibrated the right floorboard, shook the windshield screws loose...... and guess what , it was my fault..... I bought a used set of pipes and didnt have the proper mounting harware therefore they were mounted too ridgid which in turn transferend vibrations throughout the bike.
Im sure some do have legitement problems but some times we tend to think our bike has the same problemsas others only because we read about it.
What? That thing down in the back of the motor, where the power is transferred, is supposed to be stone cold silent? I want my money back 'cause mine makes whirring noises too!
