geannie mine is built with fiberglass body also.Now what I have welded to bottom of down tube is weight filled pipes [3, 14 inch pipes] out of the way. Another problem I had when I bought mine was the wheel spacers were loose [you could spin with fingers,not good] so after tightening took away high speed shake.Hope this helps in some way but, I believe with just first gear shake its still in flywheel or clutch........NOT a mechanic, just past problems with big trucks.
