I have a shuttering when applying the rear brake. Especially when I get down to speeds of 25 mph to 0. The whole bike shakes. Does not feel like a warped rotor. Bike is brand new it started at around 400 miles I now have 850 miles. I have a 1992 ultra classic with 90k on the bike including rear rotor I have no shuttering when stopping.

i really dont know if this is a rotor and pad problem. seems to be vibration from the engine being transfefed into the brakes at slow speed. i know you arw probably shaking your head. the dealer let me drive another bike just like mine with just 9 miles on it. does the same thing but not as pronounced. any suggestions? i really dont know if this is a rotor and pad problem. seems to be vibration from the engine being transfefed into the brakes at slow speed. i know you arw probably shaking your head. the dealer let me drive another bike just like mine with just 9 miles on it. does the same thing but not as pronounced. any suggestions?

Let me ask you a question. Is this your first Harley? If so, I know what you're feeling. It is engine vibration being transferred to the entire frame. You can see the "bouncing" in your eyes at slow engine speeds. This is typical of all Harley's other than the Softail which now have counterbalanced engines. I've owned Harleys since 1966 and I now own a 1994 Dyna Wide Glide. It does the same thing but the rigid mounted engines in the earlier models were much worse than these rubber mounted bikes of today. This is one of the characteristics of Harleys. They have always vibrated, much worse in the past and this may be what you're feeling. Now, you've ridden a different bike and felt the same thing basically. Now, let one of your friends that rides anything other than a Softail ride yours and give you an opinion. But, it still may be something wrong with the mounting of the engine in your bike. If somebody else says the vibration is more than normal, take it back to A dealer, try a different one even if it requires a trip to another town. Don't simply let your local dealer brush you off. Harley warranties the bike, not the dealer. Ride Safe. Steve Let me ask you a question. Is this your first Harley? If so, I know what you're feeling.
