    Handlebar Vibration

    I am currently on my way to Ithachi and I just arrived at the port in Patra which was a good run on national roads. The vibration through the handlebars was so bad that my hands are still fuzzy 10mins after stopping. Now I have not done much long distance high speed riding and this may just be the norm? I know that all bikes have some level of vibration but I don't have anything to compare it with. For the Inazuma how bad is it for you guys? I was riding approximately 3hrs at speeds from 100-150kmph.

    In what speeds you have annoying vibrations on the handlebars?

    Are your tires correctly inflated and balanced?

    From 100kmph and up. Just checked tyre pressure before I left Athens.

    I haven't had to drive for a way long, but everyday I drove >100km/h and have no vibrations at all.

    My thought is tires are not balanced correctly or too much weight on the back. Try with a tank bag to add some weight on front.

    I'll get tyres balancing checked. I now have saddle bags on but not so much weight. It's even done this unloaded. Just had problem with F1 light as well grrrr I've posted about it under a previous F1 topic.

    Take a look if the balancing weights are on position...

    150 kph? That equates to about 93 mph  :005: - well beyond the Inazuma design speed.

    I rode mine today at speeds up to 77 mph (124 kph) for about 3 hours and had no vibration whatsoever from anywhere. As previous likely to be the tyres but at 93 mph the bike could be vibrating from anywhere

    Check the bar ends too, if they are loose they may be causing the bars to vibrate. If it is more than a buzzing vibration, more like a fast little wobble, then it could be the headstock needs tightening.
