I understand this.  My engine does vibrate throughout the entire rev
range, however.  I can feel it in the clip-on's, footpegs, and where my
legs are against the tank and side fairings.  One long day on my last
trip, the inside of my thigh went numb.

Maybe it's just a misbalanced crank, rod, etc.  It's really hard to
quantify a vibration.

Laters,
Brian
