.zrx 1100 c1 vibration through bars .... any idea ?

Question

i know it be a million and 1 reasons why but i can't find it and just thought someone mite surgest something i have not checked.

it starts to vibrate through the bars from about 3000 rpm in all the gears any advice please

Answer 1

You could try by pulling in the clutch at a good speed and kill the engine. If the vibration is still there it could be a front end problem.

Answer 2

not sure but i had one do that and the motor mounts bolts were alittle loose

Answer 3

..either you have removed the handlebar counterweights or somthing is out of ballance somwhere,check for loose engine mounting bolts...its also possable that somthing internally has failed,possably the flywheel working loose...

Answer 4

Carbs out of balance could do that.........they all need to suck the same amount. Also lose of a bar end could do it.

Answer 5

Might be something simple like a bar end thats loose or needs replacing.

Answer 6

If the problem has just started then something has changed.  It could be something mechanical, e.g. the engine mountings as suggested above.

It could also be a synchronisation problem.  I don't know this bike, but if it has carburettors or throttle controlled butterfly valves, then it could be that these need synchronising.  This is quite easy - if you have the kit.  The kit can be bought from MCN.  

I wouldn't worry about problems with major internals unless there is an increase in noise and a decrease in the size of the vibration.
