    Vibration levels??

    I would like to start a thread about motors, bikes, and vibration issue. Have you have a serious vibrator "keep it nice" and was able to help the situation or smooth it out? I have one that turns my arms numb and my hands feel itchy after a ride. What motors are smoother for mini's than...

    Vibration

    Have a 3.5 Briggs mounted on a DB 30. I have a pretty good vibration. Engine seems to run smooth and the shaft looks strait. The gas tank is pushed up on the fender frame , very tight. Think the tanks adds to the vibration? Anyone use dampers of any kind? Suggestions?

    motorplate vibration

    Has anyone experimented with putting a layer of some other material between the engine block and the motorplate of their mini to reduce vibration? I was thinking this may also prevent scratches on the motorplate by keeping it more secure or when making adjustments etc.:out:

    Vibration mounts on Super Bronc

    I was comparing the ride between my 780 tote gote and VT8 bronc. The VT8 vibrates more than the 780. Has anyone tried to put vibration isolators/mounts on the engine with success? I thought about doing this but wasn't sure if the engine needed to be on a flat steel plate. Thoughts?

    Engine vibration

    I've got the '69 Bonanza running awesome. The little 3.5 Tec has more power than I would have hoped for, and is reving pretty high for a stock governed engine. I seem to have only one issue, at high RPMs this puppy vibrates, enough that it blurrs my vision a bit. Anyone using rubber or...
