2014 RT Limited Issues

[TopCat]

I notice it at 78 and more at 82 when I brought my rt home. I notice it more on a down hill and when I would back off the cruse controll felt that vibration. Belt drives are nice. but tension needs to be monitor more than shaft drives.
My victory vision started a squeaking noise at about 9 k found out the belt wasn't tight enough and adjusted it and it ran for 30 k with no problems.
It might take some fine adjustment to help this situation but I will wait till it is broke in at 3000 mile. just make sure the belt doesn't move off of the inside flange to much. My victory forum recommended to wash the belt that seam to keep it quiet and last long.

Thanks for the additional information. This is a beautiful bike and we will have some issues. But, with all of the experience out there, I won't be going through this all alone. I'll keep an eye on the belt and I will order the tensioner for it.

The old Triumps and early Japanese bikes would numb your feet, butt, and hands; now that was vibration!

:agree: Buy a can of paint, ride home with it, and it'd be ready to use! :thumbup:

So what was the problem with the front brake sound? I have noticed this on mine at slow speeds from the 1st day and I currently have 3500 miles on it and still doing it. I had it checked when I got the first service done at 3000 miles and they said it was dirt in the brakes but the funny thing is it still makes the noise even when driving out of the parking lot of that dealer...... Seems to be coming from the left side front (as sitting on the spyder).

Topcat the owners manual does say if you have vibration take it in to the dealer. I just read that today.
