We went out this past Sunday on our F3's and I really noticed some moderate vibe at 65-70' my girlfriend also on hers.

Have Baker belt tensioner on my 2014 RT and it works great.

Did id it get rid of a lot of the vibrations ? Did it make a big difference? I'm getting mine put on this Friday.

Maybe it's just me...I feel the vibration sometimes. Does it bother me? Not for the few seconds it happens until I adjust the RPM or speed to make it disappear. It has not happened when the cruise control was enabled so I am not worried.

When you combine so many different materials to make a machine, strange noises and vibrations will happen. Who here has not heard a 'thunk' when the heater in their house shuts off? That sound, (all sound in fact) was caused by vibration.

Don't get me wrong, I am not dismissing this. I just think that when people pay a lot of money for something they sometimes expect perfection and perfection is an impossibility. There is no such thing as perfect in engineered machines.

Maybe it's just me... I love the F3...vibrations and all.

After all this talk about the vibrations,I had to go check it out. Didn't feel it in my demo ride last month. Went to a dealer today and they let me test drive their two demo F3-S. One SE6 and the other SM6. I did not get any vibration on the SE6. Checked it on back roads and highway. All the way up to 85mph. Nothing. Ride was very smooth. Jumped on the SM6 and felt a lil vibration around 68-75. I adjust the throttle and it went away. It's not very noticeable. Don't think they had the laser alignment done on them so I'm not sure if that helps. Best of luck. I love the F3!!!

Ron,

Let us know what difference it made. I'm curious to know.

Thanks!
