Thrashed about...
Well at the ripe old age of 45 I don't think my wife is going to be able to deal with being thrashed about on the back of the 990 as she was say four years ago and prior on the 950. I hate the idea...

Thanks for the tip!

990 vibrates too
Old thread for sure, but I just got back from my first ride on the 2012 990R and searched this topic. I too am experiencing bad vibes between 4/5k rpms. My 950 did not do this. I'm trying to really...
