2010 roadster, 12000 miles, runs good but under hard (full throttle) acceleration in 4th and 5th there is a harsh pulsing vibration through the footrests. if it was constant would not be so concerned but def does not feel right, next time out will check 3rd gear out again but not noticed it up to now. any thoughts would be much appreciated
 
Thicker socks .. platform shoes .. :D i would have thought the Roadsters would have had less vibration than earlier models .. got full rubber footpegs where mine are steel.
 
Is the vibration at high RPM or down in the low RPM? I know you say "Full Throttle" but where in the rev range or is it all the way through the rev range.
Is this vibration still present at high RPM with no throttle?
Is the vibration still present at revs but with NO load?
Are your mirrors vibrating a lot too?
 
Its at about 4000 revs onwards, its only full throttle, roll off and it stops. obviously accelerating at that speed im concentrating on whats happening in front so not really noticed the mirrors ! but not noticeable through the grips so probably just through pegs. definite pulsing rather than continual vibration though.
