I own a 2014 Superlow 1200T and being this is my first Harley, since selling my Yamaha V Star, I was a little concerned about the vibration factor associated with Sportsters that I have always heard and read about. Well I purchased the bike anyway and while the bike does vibrate significantly more than my Yamaha I enjoy every minute of it. A friend of mine calls it feedback and I agree. Before I bought the bike I read a review from one of the motorcycle magazines and in the review they state that after test riding the bike it begins to vibrate more once it reaches 65 MPH, but I find the exact opposite on my bike. To me it feels like at around 70 MPH and around 3400 RPMs the bike smooths out with less vibration and it has a whole different feel to it. I was wondering if this is just my imagination, or the fact that it's reaching it's max torque had something to do with it. Sorry if this is a dumb question but does anyone else get the same feeling?
