Vibration

[TJ_Spyder]

Are any of you experiencing a considerable amount of vibration through the footpegs?

I've never owned a V-Twin so I figure that's the cause. Sometimes it feels good to get a foot massage along the ride but I find my feet getting numb.

I haven't noticed anything like that.

I've noticed some, not excessive. Doesn't really get my attention, except when I move my feet, when I take the weight off the pegs, there is some vibration.

No, I do not notice vibration in the footpegs on mine.

I didn't notice it too much until I replaced them with the ISO-Pegs... now I realize how much they were buzzing. Much smoother now! Highly recommended! :bigthumbsup:

I had a really bad vibration and told my dealer about it at my 600-mile check. The mechanic said the belt was waaaaaaaay toooooo loose. So he adjusted that and now there is no vibration. So have your belt tension checked.

Hello,
I agree with you. I have the same vibrations on hands and under seat also but mild which I find annoying and sometimes numbness on my hands. I adressed this topic also on other forums like "Can-Am talk" "Spyder4ever" and have been told that it was normal for a V-twin but I will adress it again to my dealer at my first inspection. By curiosity I tried the dealer demo Spyder and the vibrations were there too but milder. Now,I just have to find a competent dealer hnere in Montreal or in the Laurentians.
Otherwise this machine is fun!

Thanks for the advice. I'll have to check the belt tension to start. Maybe change out the pegs too.
