    the rubber things that hold it up might be stuffed?

    or not sure if this will help but my gf's n14 pulsar's rear muffler use to rattle at idle.. then the tip and internal parts of the muffler fell out lol so expect shit to fall apart maybe?

    Thats a big difference from the rubber holders to everything falling apart

    engine or gearbox mount (s) sounds like a real possibility.easy to check out,look for sagging or metal touching (or almost touching) metal. especially the mount bolts.good luck

    Gearbox mounts lose the bolts from the back end of the gearbox on VN VP quite often. This is something that you can feel through your feet more than a rattle though...

    Be careful with those cheap engine mounts on ebay as they say you get what you pay for.
