Here is a question on vibration. Sitting still if I rev the engine I get a vibration, sounds like the body of the trike is rattling against the frame??? Not real bad, and at normal riding RPMs it doesn't do it. I can push down on the fender and it doesn't do it.

Is this vibration noise normal or is something out of alignment?
 
Maybe not out of alignment, but possibly needs something tightened. My Wife's VTX1300 did this at first....I found one body bolt that hadn't been tightened securely.......tightened it, "CURED".....You might look. Also, depending on the Design, Rubber Washers at mounting points might help.....ThumbUp
 
I would re-check front motor mount bushing to see of doesn't need replacing to start and for tightness. Also check the rear swing arm bushings and exhaust mounting points.

My body on my Trog doesn't vibrate
