hello all, I was out at the dunes over the weekend, and noticed when I take off, or go slow and give it a little gas, my handle bars shake like a ba$tard.. I am not sure if paddles are causing this or what? Nothing seems to be lose, and my chain seems to be adjusted fine..
any ideas? Its annoying!
are your hubs and tires tight? check for anything loose on the front end shouldnt be hard to figure out

nothing loose there.. Its hard to explain.. i take off and it goes rattle rattle rattle rattle and then decreases after about 5-10mph.. It doesnt do it on dirt, I think it may just be sand.. hmmm... kinda a silly question I know, but its just annoying.. I hate vibrations in the bars, for some reason, reminds me of being back on my banshee.. :ermm:
yah id have to ride it. mayve u should get a stabilizer :confused:

I think u may be right with the paddles... cuz it is something in the drive terrain that
triggers it. When I am going slow and give it gas it does it, but if I coast it doesnt.. Damn haulers!

I think its just the motor lugging at the low of a speed, does it do it if you pull in the clutch? The paddles probably accentuate it because of how much they grip maybe?

ya, motor luggin does sound about right, between that and turning the paddles I think is what makes it. It bugs me, but sounds like its here to stay. :ermm:
