Make sure you are not running it on the rich side. All engines will shake a bit more if they are rich. Pull the plug out and see if it has a nice TAN color. If it is TAN then you are OK, but if it is black it is running rich. Lean conditions would be represented by a white color.

Good Luck,

Check the run-out of the crank and prop hub.... Possibly it is bent...

Rich engines usually vibrate most at low rpm through transition...
