Correct belt adjustment and a belt tensioner. My '13 RTL vibrated like crazy. I installed the SmoothSpyder belt tensioner almost 3 years ago, and it really does a great job of reducing the belt's harmonic vibration. It also makes a big difference as to what gear you are in and what the RPM's are. At 50-55, you should still be in second. The 998's like to be wound up.

If you have not had it in to the dealer recently to check the tension that's the first step if the tension is correct then higher RPM's for shift point and don't lugg the engine stay above 5500 rpm for your shift points
All the great movements in the world began with a cup of coffee!
