2008 GSF 650 Bandit vibrations
Hello everyone, Two days ago I purchased a 2008 Suzuki Bandit 650. During the viewing the bike didn't have insurance, or a valid technical inspection, so I only rode it for a short while around the guys place. Everything seemed great.
When I bought it and fixed all of the needed paperwork, I took it out on the highway and the moment I hit around 5000rpm, the bike was engulfed in vibrations that I had never felt before. (I used to tour on an old single cylinder bmw f650 and this was far worse!).
It's bad enough that I'm seriously considering selling the bike if I can't find out what's causing it, as one of the main reasons I bought it was to go on long rides.
I read about a few people having similar issues, but nobody actually said that they found the source or gave a solution to the problem.
Any advice would be gladly appreciated
Thanks in advance
