My 2006 Harley road king shakes and vibrates to much when standing still or idoling, is this normal or can it be fixed. it has rinehart pipes and the power commander.
Shaking and vibration is normal for most Harleys, it's caused by the angle of the twins, it's normal for mostly all Harley motorcycles.
check your motor mounts i'm replacing mine as we speak.I thought it was shaking an awful lot compared to other bikes.During my spring service check they discovered the broken mount,my mechanic infomed me he has changed a few from as late as a 2007,my bike is an 2006
Harley engineering has not improved, they do not have a real fix just a bunch of part replacers. I'm getting off my Harley and on to an Indian.
Oh,, and did I mention these parts were all replaced by competent Qualified Harley Davidson Mechanics at Dealers. At such high cost they can't fix squat

My 2007 Road King is a piece of Poor Engineering. New engine mount, still vibrates, new compensator, still vibrates excessively, new clutch, new starter drive and ....you guessed it vibrates worse now. I test road two Indians last week, sick of antique engineering designed to fail and burden owners with repairs. 4 friends have switched to Yamaha and rode over 40000 mles without any repairs...haven't seen a harley do that.
