Hi All, I have a 98 fzs600, I have been experiencing what i can only call vibration/buzzing at around 5k RPM + in pretty much every gear.
I dont claim to be an expert biker and not overly technical, i have tried to fix the buzz from the headlight by removing the cone and putting some foam tape around various parts of the bike.
It does it when i rev it to around 5k on side/centre stand and the same out on the road, once the revs get up to around 5k rpm i can feel the vibration/buzz through the handlebars and fuel tank?
Unsure if its engine mounting bolts or something i have missed?
I tried to get this looked at before christmas and took it to my local garage who took it out for a test ride and said its fine and nothing wrong with it, although he may be right, i have owned a couple of fazers in the past (well about 10 years ago) and i cant remember them being so buzzy?
Its had a new chain and the bike is in reasonable condition, its just one of those things which seems to spoil the riding experience.
