all engines vibrate differently at different rpm, the SV does it at ~5k, over 70mph = motorway cruising = bored = notice things you missed before
It's not a noise that was there previously, though - I know, I rode the bike a bit when he first got it

Equally, the vibrations used to be fine (he used to do 300 round-mile trips no problems), but recently he can't do more than 90 miles without getting battered by the vibes
