Any info on vibration problems in C14. My son got a new one and found uncomfortable vibes crusing at fair speed.
He came across some reference to U.S police complaining about the same problem. He had complained to Kawasaki and got no joy.
This is his second one. The previous one had some vibe but this was much worse apparently. |

Al,
Early last year I bought a new '09 left-over C14 and sold my '93 K1100RS.
Sold it late last year for several reasons and went back to a brick.
I never was bothered by vibration but had added the heavy weight model throttlemeister http://throttlemeister.com/app/inventoryapp/kawasaki/inventory_view/82-0-205-1.html and "grip puppies" (foam grip covers) when I first bought it.
Murph was a great source for these

IIRC, on the (now discontinued) GTR Fanatics forum there were many different opinions and experiences with vibration.
Good luck to your son.
