Are the horizontal (smaller) brackets changed or the larger verticals? I think I have the verticals fixed and am anxious to install some more robust brackets that mount horizontally to the speakers.

 

I experienced this same problem with my 2006 flhx. 3 frame brackets broken. The speaker brackets (both ) compleatly seperated . Made new brackets and welded washers to go compleatly around outside screws on the speaker brackets. Fixed severe vibration however I still had bad vibration at that same rpm. replaced front motor mount . Same problem, I am not computer literate at all but love to read these forums (this is my first reply to H.D Forum ,one finger typer ) any way i had installed a power commander a couple years ago and loaded it with the help of my son but never had a lap top to set the minimum and max throttle settings -its simple once you have a teenager show you- this cured my problem. Bike always worked good rode to Vegas from N.B. Canada but unknown to me 0 idle position was really 6% throttle. Hope this helps someone even if its not your problem .Stuff like cheap tin brackets and the paper thin mounting points should not be on a fairing that faces 100MPH winds. good luck!

 

My right side fairing brackets were broken. Had them replaced today. I suspect riding over rough roads around here contributed to them failing. Same symptoms; rattle at low idle to about 2000 rpm, then fine once underway.

My extended warranty covered the repair, less the $50 deductible.

 

I have the same problem with an ultra glide ultra limited 2010,exactly coming down in RPM at 2000 the whole front goes in a very rough vibration,it's at the dealer right now

 

mgabr00, did you ever get an answere from the dealer about your vibration.

 

yes
they said it is because this model had a rigid mount engine frame,it is not rubber mounted.
Pretty lame answer,don't you think ?

 

yes I do. but I, and many others have the same problem with the old frames. I for one, would sure like to figure it out.

 

Yes it is pretty lame considering that your motor is rubber mounted.

 

I have a 2009 Electra Glide Standard with 900 miles on it. I get the same vibration at about 1900 RPM. It smooths out after 2000 RPM and below 1800 RPM. Fairing brackets are fine. Any other ideas what might be causing this? I am soon going in for the 1000 Mile checkup.

 

I have a 2008 SG with 13 K miles on it, the vibration on the fairing just started a month ago, I noticed the right horizontal bracket was broken. I replaced both of them just to be safe but I have the same vibration. It seems the new brackets didn't do a damned thing. I will check the speakers as someone mentioned earlier but if you have any other ideas I'd appreciate it. file:///D:/IMAG0038.jpg
