Vibes From Screen
 

Has anyone noticed a strange vibration at around 70 which no amount of head positioning will prevent? I have and thought I may have a problem with the engine but it seems to be ebbing away the more miles I put on it. The first time it happened I felt my face going numb it was so bad. I think I've isloated the problem yet searching the forum no-one else seems to have mentioned it. The screen is vibrating quite badly at 5200rpm (70mph) and this is vibrating the air flowing over the screen like a loudspeaker vibrates the air and you feel it in your chest. This vibrating air is hitting me square in the helmet and imparting the vibes into my face!!!!:confused:

Has no-one else had this problem? Its at it worst at around 75 but is weakening as time goes by! Probably just a running in thing....I hope so!:D

in normal seating position the airflow will hit you in the chest, in a semi crouch it will hit you in the helmet (mmm semi , helmet?) a double bubble screen may help, or it may be that you have a noisy crash helmet?

The wife looked over my shoulder to see what speed we were doing only this afternoon on a quick blast down the bypass and she said her face went tingly and it made her nose itch, the vibes that is! She wears a Shoei but the vibrating air mass got her too! Spoke to an owner tonight and he said he'd not heard of anything like it before! Do I have a lemon???????:(

We were doing 70mph honest officer..thats roughly (pun?) where the vibes start! :D Thats why she was interested in the speed!
Maybe my face just needs to get use to the numbing effect!:confused:

I'll keep you posted!

Mine vibrates, and sometimes squeaks, but thats cus one of the lugs that holds it on is broken. I just ignore it, or ensure my ear plugs are in... when I do that it just goes away!

mine did the same till i tightened up the screws that hold the ting on :)
