Who is that fella with the devilish grin?

You're lucky it's just a 7 day wait Dick, I purchased a set a couple of months ago, they made to Akron on UPS, then disappeared, but that's another story, I usually would be replacing them now, but haven't rode as much this year, so I have a set ready to go when needed

Get my bike back from the dealer yesterday after my motor went south on me. ESP replaced everything but one head new bottom end  cylinders pistons oil pan n cooler. It was all stock motor except for SE power cam and SE street tuner after they replaced everything I had them to replace the intake manifold with the SE one. So ESP pay around 6500. Now for the breakin miles.

Had a little annoying vibration in Orange Crush that started on the ride up to Ohio in July. Checked a bunch of stuff between then and Maggie Valley and the only thing that helped was loosening and retightening the stabilizer on the front of the engine. I could actually feel the vibration go away each time I layed the bike over to either side in a curve or simply going straight and deliberately swerving right and left. But each time the bike returned to center the vibration was back.

So I finally broke down and got a new stabilizer and viola, problem solved. So if you have a little vibration, check the stabilizer. Mine at 37,000 miles had quite a bit of play in it compared to the new unit.

Mike, This one caused a whole lot of vibration, the swivel froze in the stabilizer bar and the torque broke the bolt, rode it that way back from NC, it was on my 2015 SGS, only had 8K on it

I'd say that did cause some vibration

Did you get the chrome SE part for replacement?

 I checked for codes on my bike yesterday, PO374 CPK sensor sync error, B1154 Clutch Switch Short-to-ground showed up. I’ve never seen these on my bike so after I checked for the simple things, connections and such I cleared them and went for another ride, no more codes. I got to thinking and while in Maggie Valley on a long group ride there was several sections where I pulled clutch lever in and coasted for a long time on some downhill stretches, curves involved. This is where I have a question would coasting at speeds 30 to 40mph then engaging clutch when necessary, would it cause these codes to show up?

Or maybe when you went trail riding at the Big Muskie Bucket in Ohio
