South Houston Indy #RockApproved
Name is Find my new local Indy in South Houston. Name is Jim Aubuchon

Got rid of my vibes at 80mph when the dealer couldn't find it twice. Also chromed my front end. Very easy to work with. Does what you ask. Not really into the whole up selling thing.

Does everything but stretch frames for the most part. All service, engine upgrades, etc can be done here for better price than the dealer. He use to work at Harley, but got tired of the atmosphere.

After reading all the replies, and as it seams all things make a glide vibrate, I have to ask what fixed your vibration issue Rock?

After all the good info shared from your original vibration thread, I have to guess alignment of the front motor mount, but alas I am not a trained HD mechanic nor do I want to be. I have turned all the wrenches on mine to date, and am considering doing the tensioners myself.
Don't call me cheap. Call me frugal!

It was the compensator nut inside of my stator rotor. It was loose and was wearing the teeth out. Even made excess engine noise that I had gotten use to.

Replaced that and 80 feels just like 50. I damned near sold this bike after the dealer kept telling me it was normal over 20k. I have been walking through the BMW bike dealership on several occassions. Glad he found the issue. Cams and more chrome coming. Maybe not in that order. I love it again like when I first bought it.

Still pissed the dealer couldn't find. I replaced all 4 brackets in my fairing and front motor mount. Some coin! All for the same vibes.

$120 he fixed the problem. Dammit.

Just to clarify.....did he just tighten up the compensator nut? Or did he replace the rotor (if the nut is loose the teeth on the rotor will round off) or did he replace a worn out rotor? I think a rotor costs more than a buck twenty.
