my fairing, light unit and screen vibrate from around 1600 - 3000 rpm. this is the very last issue left to fix on my bike, i've done all the rest now including the obligatory clutch rattle!
i think it's the top of the screen that makes the noise as i can get hold of it and the noise stops, so if i can stop that rattling that will do.
to fix this i have tried 3 things:
firstly i removed the screen and added some ikea furniture style clear rubber pads between the screen and the fairing. no difference.
then i bought grahamb's breaker front clock bracket (and had it powder coated) and fitted it instead of the original. it make a marginal difference - it brought the vibration about 1000 rpm lower down the rev range.
yesterday i ran it in and mechanic marc and i balanced the carbs. this made no discernible difference (to the vibration).
so now i am stuck. any ideas or suggestions please?
is it clean enough?
