Didn't read the entire thread but my 00 RKC Classic does this and I love it. In fact I let go of the handlebars at the light so I can watch them bouce.
Anyhow I have to add that when I first picked it up used in August of this year I did notice it and wasn't used to it. Since I was 300 miles from home I rode it to a friends house and had him pull out his tools so I could investigate. The bars have 2 3/4 bolts below them at the neck bearing that were slightly loose. 1 full turn and all was well. The still vibrated but it's just enough to make me smile.

Funny thing. I've been riding the old bouncers so long that I don't even notice it anymore. I guess I did years ago, I just can't remember that far back now.

my 09 Street Glide shakes the handlebars a good bit at idle, in fact it is hard to focus on anything in the mirror. Once you hit the throttle very smooth.

She needs to ride on the back of a shovel at about 3500 RPM !!! Funny thing, my RK shakes when it's idling, sooooo smooth under power. My shovel is sooo smooth at idle, vibrates the passenger to an audible moan every 30 miles or so under power, especially if you stretch third gear as far as it will go.
