    Strange Vibrationzzzz

    in FJ-09 Known issues and solutions

    Posted

    I know the vibrations this thread talks about.  I got a different vibration and just wanted to throw this out.  When I ride my bike like a John Deer tractor at a steady 2,500 rpm in 1st or 2nd gear, I feel a grinding sensation in the footpegs.  I know nothing is grinding because the bike is so un-stressed at this moment.  But grinding is the sensation.  Probably some bad harmony from the muffler or the drive chain slacking out it some weird way on the plastic guide.
    I absolutely second what you said Evoled... 
    As I climb through the RPMs and in lower gears, I feel exactly the same grinding sensation that you have stated... not sure what the fix is, so I try to get OUT of this rpm range QUICKLY! ;-)

    Hello Folks,
     
    Late to the party as I just picked up a 2015 FJ-09 from a private party... sits in my garage waiting for the title to come in so I can register it! :-)
     
    For reference I am 6' 2" and 180 lbs without gear.
     
    In terms of the most popular windscreen that is helping folks on the slightly taller side, what do you guys and girls suggest I try? Trying to tap into the Cult knowledge that exists on this wonderful forum. Thanks a lot!!
