Thoughts on engine vibes

OK,

Got her back from the 12k service which even had the carbs balanced, asked for the balancing too.

Went for a short ride home in 30c heat and leathers. Didn't feel any different. Can't believe there are people that commute to work everyday on there bike in these conditions.

Gonna still give the gixxer 750 a try and see how she feels..

may be the whole fly by wire thing will fix this ???

Are you all running stock tyres? What pressure is at?

I only ask as the rubber may have been in storage for sometime and not be true? Extended Ks on said tyre may make the symptoms worse? Perhaps wheel balance or something similar.

I've noticed a similar vibe on my new 10R, from day one, but it's not enough to annoy me. Maybe it'll get worse

Of course you could harden the fark up and just ride anyway

Mike that model bikes front suspension stock you could feel every pebble on the road and the rear end was like a block of wood....needed some adjustment and if you could get it right its a good thing but it really took more fiddling than it should have.

If you still have the pilot sports on there get rid of them and get something else,014 bridgestones or pilot powers or metzlers whatever but the pilot sports would be at least a few years old now and i dont think they have made them for a few years.

Mine came with Dunny Qualifiers - they'll be shot real soon with the Ks I do, then will get M3s

does the 03 still run carbs?? or did ur mech rip u off?? i thought they were EFI ...


um bikes vibrate..its what they do...u reckon urs is bad, go rev a zzr250 out to abt 9000rpm!!

I find if you dont like the vibration take the battery out!
