Default Low RPM Vibration

I've got almost 5,000 miles on my '09 Street Glide and may have a new problem. I'm getting increased vibration around 2,000 RPM. It begins to even out above 2500 RPM. I dis have a Heavy Breather, V&H Dresser Duals and Monster Ovals installed and at the same time had it dyno tuned with a SEST. Any body else have any low rpm problems like this? I had it back at the dealer and they do admit that it's got a vibration but said it's probably the pipes. Might be, I don't know and befor I go and replace everything again, I thought I'd ask around.

I took the wife's Sporty in for an oil leak and while they were test riding it the service manager noticed a vibration in it. They ended up doing some grinding on the exhaust brackets and stuff and it stopped. I am telling you about this so you realize that they may be correct....he asked me if I had ever noticed the vibration, I said, "yeah I noticed it, but I figured it was a Sporty."
