excess vibration
after I changed my front motor mount I seem to get some bad vibration between 1100 and 1200 RPM I dont remember it being like that when it was new or any time before I changed the mount other than that the bike is perfectly normal should I be worried ?
I have 60k miles on my 05flht no major mods
thanks for any input

The procedure for situations like this, when things ain't right after doing/changing something, is to go over the installation routine again - very thoroughly and carefully! Have you altered the front stabilizer and is your vehicle alignment right? Are the rear rubber mounts OK, or are they shot?

I dont know what I could have done wrong installing the mount.
didn't touch the stabilizers,but the front mount was really bad (the motor was sitting low in the frame 1/2")
it shakes pretty bad on decelleration

had the exact same situation this week on my 05 glide. Changed motor mount out and developed vibration at that same rpm. It's getting better all the time I think its just matter of the material of the new mount being a little harder and taking some time to soften up. could be wrong. Also might wanna check rear hangers for your slip ons. I believe when I jacked motor up changing mount the exhaust got in a bind. I swapped out slip ons last night for some Bassani's I picked up and its smoother than it's ever been. hope this helps
