• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

A little vibration.

I have a 2014 rt limited, a couple of weeks ago I was coming home from work and I got stopped on a state Highway that was doing construction, they were asphalting, it is a two Lane road and the other Lane had fresh hot oil.. The flagger had our Lane stopped for about 7 minutes or so, but it seems like after we took off that there is like a vibration coming from the tires now, some folks when I tell them like my wife that it's just me. I took it to the dealer and the tech took it for a ride and said he didn't feel anything. But I know it was baby butt smooth and then a small vibration after the stop. I was wondering if one or the tires got kind of hot from the little oil that was maybe in our Lane or the heat from the other Lane made the tires do something, they are the kendas. Then I read on a forum that there are some bad kendas, I check the date on the tires and they are the early 2014 manufacturer date., sorry for the long post, any suggestions?

Maybe you picked up a glob of road surface on the inside of one of your wheels.
An ounce or two would do the trick. I am often surprised how much stuff
gets picked up by the wheels.
 
I tend to agree with 4Marie, we recently worked on an F3 that had gone through a construction project like you did, he had an easy pound of tar and rocks stuck to the undercarriage of his F3 and he had cleaned it a few times before we saw it. The bad tires that you are referring to were front tires, the early 2014 rear tires were just a softer compound.
 
All of the above...

but also check your sprokets for any build up. Also helps to know where you are feeling the vibrations. Like in the bars/grips, in the pegs/floorboards or in the seat...this way we can suggest places to look...:thumbup:
 
Also I'm not sure where it's coming from, sounds silly, It has also seemed that while riding sometimes it's gone then all of a sudden start feeling it again.. I even checked around the tires and haven't found anything obvious... Maybe it's just me.. I think it's got something to do with the tires a bit.. Like maybe a little spot on one of the tires due to the heat from the other Lane..when they were asphalting.. But once again thanks.
