I just recently finished my winter mods and maintenance. Added new front progressive shocks, blacked our the lowers and many other parts of the bike. As soon as i put it back together and took it for a test ride the handle bars, fairing, mirrors, everything shakes terribly once i start moving. The higher the RPM the worse the shake. I am going to guess it has something to do with either getting the stabalizer mount and link powdercoated, or improper installation. I am lost right now. My entire front fairing, forks, and exhaust were off the bike. I don't know why the bike ran perfect and now it shakes violently. The bike has been sitting for 6 weeks in the garage. So it had to be something i did incorrectly. I didnt see any rubber bushings or anything of that such when i reinstalled the stabalizer. This is the linkage rite below the gas tank and rite above the exhaust header.

 

You're on the right track! Stabilizers are out of whack

 

Think possibly i have it installed wrong or possibly the powder coat messed with it

 

Here is an update if anyone else ever has this problem that i had. After taking the exhaust off again and replacing the exhaust gaskets, changing the stabilizer linkage and doing various changes and checks I finally figured out what the shake and vibration came from. With a long 10 hr shift of working on the bike putting on my new toys, i was an IDIOT and put on the left passenger peg upside down. the bracket was barely resting on the primary and caused the entire frame and bike to shake like crazy. A very stupid mistake that took me forever to figure out, but hopefully this will help someone else making the same mistake that i did.
