vibration ?

hey guys after riding for a while yesterday noticed when i sit on the bike on idle, i felt vibration through the seat and handle bar. increase the rpm to about 3 still doing it and over 3000 goes away. have not done any changes to bike. except oil change last week. bike runs great no hesiation, no buzzy feel when riding the bike in different speed.

any thoughts?

With clutch out in neutral, it will do that...slight, but there just the same.

Seems like mine's a little more noticeable since the mods. Very slight, but a little bit more. I'd still do it all in a heartbeat.

Don't rev the bike in neutral with the clutch out. Not being a s/a, but it's in the manual that you shouldn't do it. I don't know why it's bad exactly, but I've read about it before. In fact, blitz once said something along the lines of, "Never with my bike!"

i know why, this happen to me couple of weeks ago. sat on stop lite put in nutural wait for green lite, rev it to 3 to 4000 rpm, guess what, bike jump out of nutural to first gear and scare the shit out of me!!! jumped a little and died. good thing i was sitting on it and able to control it otherwise it would have been laying down on the pavement.
