Bwahahahahaha....now that's funny.

Unfortunately I haven't had any time to follow-up with this issue, and even sadder is no time to ride. This next month or so will be crazy for me so I'm not sure when I will get to this. My first "fix" will be a carb sync and then perhaps some rubber supports for the lower wind deflectors.

The fob option only came if you ordered the heavy-duty upgraded flux-capacitor though.

OK,......I wanna know who baked the brownies that started this discussion....I want some......

"could stand yo pick your brain a bit as well".......I don't know.....it's pretty slim pickin's there!! Just ask my wife.

God info guys, thanks. I do have the light bar so will check that first. Carl......might drop by for a visit next week one night....will let you know.

Sometimes I use my own sync tool that has the brand name PCCC on it, and sometimes it's someone else using their own device.

I don't put many miles on the bike in a year and do a carb sync at least once a year.......never found it to be the answer to this problem.

I have had my 2006 for three years now and love it. Since the day I bought it there was always handlebar vibrations at highway speeds.......to the point that the hands would go numb and would have to shake the hand for a few minutes to get the feeling back. I always figured it was mostly from the worn tires....well the other week I had two new Avons put on.....I am still having the same numbing vibrations at highway speeds......assuming the shop balanced and mounted the new tires properly, I should be able to rule out the tires. The vibrations are enough that I can feel them when I put my hand on the gas tank......not enough that I am loosing control or anything.
Looking for suggestions as to what the cause is, how to diagnose it and solve the problem.
I am relatively mechanical adept, although I have never really torn into the '06 yet.....have most of the day to day tools.
Looking for answers.
Thanks

I hear you. My wife has worked in property management for the last 20 years and has a long list of horror stories of things like this. It is really sad how some people know how to play the system....and win.

Old worn out Dunlops.

Ya, the old ones were howling like a pack of wolves......really like the difference.

Put two news skins on the bike today...only got to go for a short ride after but what a difference. Feels great. Went with Avons front and back.

"Sadly Reiny, they won't in our lifetime". Ya, sad but true.

Sadly I have also seen alot of what you mentioned.......I have also found myself doing the same. When are people going to get the message and put their stinking phones away?

That Venture is at a bike shop that I stop in at from time to time up near Kincardine, Ontario. Neat machine.

Lower wind deflectors

One of the first things I am going to do in an attempt to reduce/eliminate handlebar vibration is to install bumpers between the lower wind deflectors and the forks. Are these something pre-made that you can buy or are people making their own? Would love to see pics if anyone has any.
thanks
