I'm guessing this is an issue that is uniquely mine, but I thought I'd see if anyone else has had this.

My bike has a audible vibration from about 3900 rpm to about 4300 rpm. From my perspective, it sounds like its coming from the dash, but that can be deceiving inside a helmet. I've removed everything I've added or modified, and nothing changes the sound. I've tried grabbing everything withing reach while riding to see if anything dampens it and nothing does. I did the stock muffler mod, so maybe there's something there, and putting the factory muffler back on is my next thing to try, but it just doesn't sound like it's coming from there, and pushing my boot against the muffler doesn't help dampen the vibration.

I cannot remember when it started, as I've never been found of the sound of the Triple, so maybe it's just part of the experience?

Anyone had this or have any ideas?

Have you checked the front mudguard? There are two "fingers" that slide into two plastic clips.... the "fingers" should be given a layer of tape to let them fit tight. I have read that this can be an issue....
