unbalanced wheels?
Hi there,
I'm having troubles with my XR650L, there's a low frequency vibration coming through when I'm on the road (not the buzz that these machines always make at highway speed). I thought it was loose wheel bearings, but I replaced them and the vibration is still there, although it's a bit better than it was. Now I'm thinking it may be the back tyre is unbalanced (as I think the vibration started when I last changed the rubbers) and the unbalanced tyre caused the wheel bearings to go out.
Is there anything else that could be causing such a vibration (it's about 2 hz at 50 km/h and seems to have a secondary frequency of about .25 hz)? Chain mis-aligned? loose swingarm? I don't have much experience with on-road work and I've never noticed a vibration like this on my trailbikes.
Cheers
