Harley is the only company with this problem because their engine shakes like a paint shaker and the motor is rubber mounted which is the only anyone can sit on one at idle.




Funny story about that here.

Guy buys a Sportster. Rides out, comes back the next day saying there's something wrong with the bike, it shakes too much!

Trying to explain to the guy that it is a Harley "thing". Guy couldn't believe it. Left the bike overnight for the shop to "fix" it. They rode it, tried to see if there was something loose... nope.

2 months it goes like that, guy comes back to shop, complains about the "shake". After 2 months, guy asks the shop to buy back his bike....

I tried it. Didn't like it... not one bit. And yes, it shakes like crazy!

The name... "Sportster"... is it because it is a sport to just stay on that bike?




All Harley Davidson dealers here will let you test ride the bike you are interested in buying, or have a demo bike of the same model. No other brand here allows that not Triumph, Honda or BMW. The only exception was Ray Price Triumph because they are also a Harley dealer and run their Triumph brand the same way. A test ride confirms it's the bike you want.
