Default Severe vibration.

2024 RG. Sorry, my second whine. 1K rpm to about 22-25K rpm very hard vibration, then mellows out, still vibrates but not as severe. Thoughts? I have 1K schedualed for next week.

You aren't having much fun with this bike are you? No one here will have the answers. Take it in.

You have posted about this in various posts.

1. Have you contacted the dealer about warranty as suggested in your first post?

https://www.hdforums.com/forum/gener...l#post21604478

2. If not why not?

3. Or are you ignoring the suggestions you have received by knowledgeable members and just ranting about your new bike.

4. If you do not want to take definitive action (call dealer and set up appointment to check for the problem), then you are on your own to wonder and guess what the issue is.

5. No one can diagnose your vibration issue over the internet without feeling it for themselves or inspecting your motorcycle for loose or failed parts.

NOTE:
The above information, while credible, is worth what you paid for it and should not be considered gospel.
Do due diligence, research and have a H-D Field Service Manual before working on your bike.
You will probably have many opinions and suggestions presented; make sure you research the person providing the helpful information as there are some who provide good information that is useful and some who speak out of other orifices with gibberish. You will figure out this quickly.

Could be the crank. Make dealer give you a straight answer about what the issue is. A lot of techs make up bull just to get rid of you.

If I am reading this right you are going from 1000 RPM to 22000 - 25000 RPM and you are wondering why you have vibration?
Or maybe the “K” is not your friend.
As others have said take it to the dealer, unless you stole it from the dealer.
Hey I am just messing with you, but I figured you wouldn’t mind being that you are 121 years old and all.
