Default floor boards
I still can't find the source of the vibration in the rider floor boards and highway pegs. My wife says there isn't any vibration in the passenger floor boards at all. The motor seems to run smooth, no vibrarion in the handlebars or seat while moving.

I have check the exchaust and had the dealer check the bike and they can't seem to find anything. It happens above 2000 rpms

I would appreciate any ideas

Thanks

If it was a motor mount, I would expect the pasenger floor boards to vibrate?
