FLHX vibration
Just noticed a bad vibration that is isolated to the left handle bar only. Vibrates so bad the clutch lever is making a noise as it hits the housing. Damnest thing. The right side aint movin at all.
Its a 2006 Street Glide with 26K on it. I will tear into it tonight, but still thinking wtf....
Shouldn't both sides be vibrating equal since its a single bar?
Any ideas here? I just replaced both speacker brackets and the top 2 main brackets this summer. Fairing is not vibrating at all...isolated to the left side of the bars.
Oh yeah - forgot to mention...only when Iremove my hand from the grip. I do not feel the vibration at all when holding the grip..let go and damn.....

I would think loose brackets would result in equal vibrations on both sides of the bars, but won't know until I tear into it.

If the left side of the clamp is loose, but the right side is tight I would think the left grip are would vibrate more as it's further from the remaining tight clamp point.
Let us know when you get in there and check it.
