Why does my Harley Davidson bike vibrate in neutral?
In neutral it does not vibrate, only in gear when you let off the throttle and the rpm’s come down does it vibrate. I replaced the front motor mount, I believe the vibration is what ruined it. The bike has less than 22000 miles on it. The original owner parked it due to the vibration and it has been in his garage for 7 years.
