vibrations

Hi all, I am having a few problems with the AT, cuts out noot long after start up when riding cold, leave it 19 minutes and it starts again with no more problems!! I have serviced it, changed plugs, fuel filter, fuel lines etc but still happening. only thing left is the fuel pump, it runs with...

Am I worrying too much? DSLR and small prime lens in a tail bag strapped to the back seat? I'd love to combine my bestest things to do - bikes and photography - but too nervous to take the camera. Not in case I drop the bike or anything, just vibrations and general bouncing about on the back...

Hi all, Kind of thought I should get some footpeg rubbers to reduce the vibrations, i dont think these are original Alp footpegs- - can anyone tell? And there seems to be a screw hole in the centre to add the rubbers, any thoughts? I cant see a brand name on the pegs, so makes life tricky to...

Hello again everyone :thumbright: I have a vibration problem on my 96' africa. When RPM goes from 4500-5000 and up, i feel vibration underneath the seat and on the bike itself, and when i pull the clutch lever the bike calms down and keep roling without the vibrations. The vibrations that i feel...

As some of you know from my tracker thread i am finding it hard to "bond" with my Dommie project but I dont know if I am expecting too much . Now I never thought the bike would be fast but I was expecting to get to about 90mph and be able to lift the front wheel in low gears . so am I just...

Found this interesting site which charts the history of the 52 degree engine from VT500 to XRV750. Curious on your views on the following quote from this site; It has been broadly claimed, that the most effective use of the V-Twin 52o engine, is for the middle cubism motorbikes and that...

Hi all I have been looking for a replacement for my Veho micro camera I mounted on the dash of the Alp complete with vibrations. The camera performed well but had a field of view of 60 deg. So after much searching I settled on the BulletHD2. I bought it from HedCamz, Carl the owner talked me...

Just recently my Dommie has started vibrating alot more. It does make more noise I'd say but that is difficut to guage, definitley my feet are more prone to getting a bit dead after 250 miles on the road. Does anyone have any suggestions as to why this might be? tyres are fine, oil al recently...

Dear all, during my last ride during a very heavy rain to Amsterdam the bike vibrates a lot when accelerating on low rpm, any idea what the problem could be? is it due to humidity which changes the fuel/air mixture or else? greets, Awsi

Hi everyone I'm new on here and have a question about my @ RD04 It seems to be very smooth up to 4500rpms then vibrates till 6000RPMs then smooths out again. I have done a search and read all the posts and quite a few other bikes seem to be similar. But no one had found a cure? Is this...

hi all, my 650 v2 transalp has developed a very annoying handlebar vibration . leaves the right hand with pins and needles after only 30 mls ride at about 4-5000 rpm, never did it before. The only thing I`ve done recently is adjust the stearing head bearing as requested at the mot...

I've been struggling with a vibration on my bike for quite a while now and i have looked at pretty much everything except taking the engine apart. Carbs have been synced, plugs checked and so on. The vibes become noticeable at bout 4000rpm The vibrations started a few days after I did a oil...

Hi guys, I'm experiencing some troubles with my '03 TA. A few months ago, with 37.000 kms on the clock and after driving more than half hour on a motorway the idle speed used to be 1.400 rpm, far too high. Then, at 39.000 kms the engine started to vibrate a little bit at any rpm, and the...

Im getting a lot of vibration from the back end of my RD-07 recently. It doesnt seem to be accompanied by any degree of extra noise though. I keep the chain pretty well lubed, tyres are at pretty much the right pressure (i keep them at slightly higher than the normal "just rider" pressures, as...

Hi all, Since I have my TA (6 months) the engine vibrate when reaching the 6000 rpm. I feel it in my hands and it's not nice on long rides. Is it normal/usual? Can I do anything? Thanks Claudio

Hi all, recently purchased an AT and been using it to run along to work o a daily basis which has made a nice change from riding the scooter (people tend not to ignore me now or assume I'll move. Or just go away). The thought did occur to me that possibly I was wasting the bike so thought I...

Presently i have noticed that when i am driving at some speed over 60 km/h irritating vibrations are being transmitted through the handlebars that make my right hand go numb after an hour or so. Those vibrations are coming from the engine because when i engage the clutch they disappear. they...

After having a tootle round the car park on fewtrees '99 RD07a I realised my '94 RD07 vibrates a bit more, and has done ever since I've owned it. So, I'm now on the quest for some silky smoothness :shock: I think the ignition's OK (judging by the colour of the 'plugs and the fact that it...
