My EC300 has much more vibration than any other 2 stroke I have ever had and it has severely limited my riding by triggering some very nasty reactions in my hands, arms and shoulders. None of my previous bike have had balancer shafts so it's not like I have gone back to something having experienced better.

All the engine mounts are tight and to torque spec and there is nothing obvious so any tips before I start stripping engine parts would be appreciated.
When you slack the bolts of for the engine mounts.. how does it sit in the frame? Any excessive clearance that might need to be shimmed out?

No broken head stays?

If that's a no.. I'd be checking the stator side for any play.. Make sure the ring gear hasn't come loose etc. If you pick up play there then I'd take the rhs engine cover off and check the torque on the crank nut.

How many hours on it? Has it always been like this?
