So I finally got around to putting on the new rotor. Got all the parts for everything in and reinstalled. I had the bike sitting for a while as I just didn't have the time to get the job done. So I took the bike out for a test ride yesterday and something is wrong. At idle you don't notice a problem. But as soon as you start moving it is apparent something isn't right. The bike is vibrating way to much. It isn't smooth at all. It's revs but pretty high but there isn't much power. But mainly the vibration is terrible feels like the bike is gonna fall apart. I thought the rotor install was pretty straight forward but is there a chance I missed something?

Balancer shaft probably isn't aligned correctly.

go here: scroll down for pix...this isn't exactly what's wrong with your bike...but it shows the balance gear and it's "timing" marks:
