Check you chain tension.

		Ok. We have about 830 miles on the bike and all has been
going smooth. I
		will layoff will the great's this's and that's. But, they
are all true.
		The one thing I have been noticing that is of concern though
is that
		after about five miles or so I seem to pick up a
tapping/thumping
		through the bars and pegs. Most noticeable between 4k and 6k
when
		backing off throttle or at part throttle, not accelerating.
It is also
		more noticeable in 4th - 6th. When it is pulling all seems
fine and
		smooth.

		So, my question is this a normal vibration on the bike or
something more
		serious? Initially it seems more like a tire problem but if
I clutch I
		don't feel it. It is going into the shop next week for a
check up and to
		have the bags installed so I will be having it checked out.
Just wanted
		to here other opinions.

		As to names, nothing yet, though Shadow is a possibility
(black '99) as
		in it follows where ever I am going. Also as in "Who knows
what evil
		lurks in the hearts of me? The Shadow knows..........!"
