The vibes from the bike are usually transfered to the front wheel which is ever so slightly rocking back and forth, if the brakes are applied the tire can't rock back and forth on the ground so the vibes are transfered to everything else. I'm not sure if I'm explaining it right but if you've ever noticed a Harleys' front end shake at idle you know what I'm talking about.
Take a look at a Wide Glide and see how much that front wheel is vibrating.
