Hello everyone, I really need your help here,
I purchased my 22 r18b last year and I loved it, I installed a back rest from roadstyler.com my wife and I always ride together (she as a passenger) we put 3k miles last season.
This season I started the bike after been storage for 4 months and it start right up.
We went for our first ride of the season and we noticed a sharp vibration that started at 2500 rpm and its worse at 2900 rpm on the seat, footrest, handlebars and passenger backrest to a point that my wife told me to stop the bike, she got a burnt mark on the side of the back from the friction of the backrest.
Took the bike to the dealer and they told me that is possible that the additive I used for the winter storage is the reason and I need to used and put fresh fuel, I refill the tank several times by now but the vibration still there.
My wife don't want to ride with me anymore and I used the bike back roads only cuz can't use the highway, can't exceed more than 60mph and the speedometer is of by 5mph.
Dealer said that everything looks good and is the character of the bike, but it seems like the bike is extremely angry.
I need your help, is this happening to any of you and any tips to resolve the issue.
I changed all the fluids again but no change, also the other thing I noticed that now it cranks but no start, have to stop and crank again and then starts right up, I also been advised to use rain mode but makes no changes.
Your advise will be greatly appreciated.
