Hey guys. Learning my bike and getting familiar with the little things and wanted to see if what I'm experiencing is normal.
At highway speeds there is a very subtle vibration in the grips, not even bothersome nor that noticeable with gloves. Seems to happen in the 7-8k range and is more pronounced if you touch the bar ends. I've ridden the bike more than 1500 miles since buying it a month ago and have had zero issues (also got 46 mpg on my recent tank, seems like a good indicator of things being on the up-and-up). Also, when going up through the revs around 4k there is a mild vibration but it is gone as soon as it shows up. Figure this was normal and didn't think it was even possible to have an engine that was entirely vibration free. It's coming up on 10k miles and figured I should pull the plugs, gap and clean them?
