Just started getting a strange vibration. Not under power, and not under compression. Just that little spot in-between. I checked the engine mount bolts and they were good. It kinda feels like it's maybe in the primary as I feel it more on the left floorboard than the right. The bike is stock other than stage 1 with tts mastertune 18,500 miles. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

 

Sometimes when you go around a corner a vibration is coming from the brake rotors.

If your rear wheel recently was removed and installed the alignment may have changed enough to make your belt rub. There is a debate as to whether the belt should favor the right or the left side of the rear pulley.

Some have had issues with wheel bearings early in the bike's life but I have never seen that. Put each wheel up in the air and spin it and see what it feels like. Keep your hand on the wheel and put some sideways force on it.

The more you ride the more you feel and hear stuff.

Or, "it's a Harley". Ride it till it breaks.

Have you made sure your exhaust isn't touching your frame?

Heat shields, loose compensationg sprocket? Riser bolts from the triple tree? Judging from the left side by the primary I am guess loose compensator sprocket. Also check your floorboard bolts.

Since you feel it on the primary side, I'd check the compensator sprocket (especially since it doesn't do it under load). It's not really 'common' but more common than it should be that they come loose. Sometimes the nut is loose but I've heard of cases where the sprocket was loose even with the nut torqued down and needed to be shimmed.

 

are U still under warranty? if so just take it in.

 

Thanks for all the responses. Been outta town so haven't checked the boards for a few days. The scoot is not under warranty, so whatever if anything is going on is my baby. My thought is it's the compensator, but don't know. It's definitely a new vibration. I'll be checking it out this weekend when I get home.

 

IPB? Main shaft bearing? Compensator. Bad drive belt. Primary chain adjuster. Out of balance wheel. Handle bar bushings. Nut behind the bars.

 

heh, heh, heh...he said nut behind the bars...heh, heh, heh.
