Timing

In stock form, it also has no method to adjust it. It's a crank trigger system, again beginning in 2004, and no adjustability is provided in either the crank trigger mounting or on the ignition module itself.
You can, however, add an aftermarket ignition module that provides adjustability. And if you really want to make sure it's set right, you can schedule some dyno time and adjust the ignition to get the best result.
But I think the issue you're describing probably has nothing to do with the ignition timing anyway.

I doubt if your timing has anything to do with this. In what way does it want to jump out?! At idle, or at speed, give us something to work with. Have you made any mods or 'improvements' recently?

I've had it a year. Came with Straight shots and I put stock pipes back on. Other than that, no mods that I'm aware of. Who knows what's in the carb, but I enjoyed riding it until I put new isolators on. Now I just want to sell it.
I have two other Harleys and they are smooth. This one is beyond vibration. It shudders.

I'm sure that whatever is wrong with it can be put right. It doesn't make sense to me that changing the front isolators has made it shake, unless there is something on the frame which is touching something on the engine, which there shouldn't be. The stock pipes should be supported entirely on the engine, with no part of them touching the frame (I just rebuilt my own).
I suggest you run an eye around your bike, making sure that nothing is bridging from the engine to the frame. If you start the engine, check all around to listen for something tapping or rattling, which shouldn't be. The solution is on your bike, you just have to find it!
