Does your F3 have a belt dampner installed?

I suggest you You Tube Can Am Belt Dampner to familiarize yourself. LaMonster also has videos.
It’s a spring tension roller that rides ontop of drive belt.

If you still have OEM Kenda tires - this may be the issue. The drive belt can cause a vibration, but I doubt the belt can cause a BAD VIBRATION .... JMHO .... Mike :thumbup:

had my 2020 f3-limited out last week.. 300 miles on it.. finnaly took it up to around 75, when i hit that speed a very bad vibration, i whent to 80mph, so i backed off,, it was definitly the belt, i dont really drive that fast, usually 60 and under, but it was the belt for sure. might put the lamonster one on mine.. not sure, because i prolly wont go the fast ..

I was over at a friends house today. He has a F3S and he made an additional one for the bottom of the belt. Said it helped even more. I meant to get a pic, but forgot.

Possibly you need to be in a lower gear, particularly if your acceleration is vigorous. Not all vibrations come from the belt.
