i'll keep it short, i have a left side drive if the drive belt is to tight
could that make turning right at slow speed tough? what i mean is i was turning in my driveway and i really had to pull on the right side of the handle bar it get it to turn. its sitting in the garage now and i don't notice it just sitting still. weird:loony: and while im asking what would cause a vibration in the rear brake pedal while stoping i fell a shake or a vibration in the brake pedal?

I've had low tires before and it never even entered my mind. Sorry about that.

So, are you taking your bike in to have the tranny shaft checked out?

i plan on it sooner or later, right now trying to resolve a starter issue
i hit the start button and sometimes i just hear a click click click
like it's kicking in but not spinning but most of the time it works,but the other day i was away from home tried to start it and click click click, me and two friends tried to push start in forth gear (yeah right) motor turn over once
ka,thump, and slide to a stop put jumper cables on it made a nastey sound
rrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeeeeclunk and then started right up didn't sound good
but, been starting up ever since , should have bought the street glide.:rant:

Vibration in rear brake pedal while stopping can be caused by the brake pads chattering against the brake rotor and piston cups of the caliper. There is a wierd looking spring that helps keep this chattering down, it's located on the pin that holds the pads in the caliper. Make sure it's not rubbing the rotor or missing all together.
