ZX12 Vibration

Post by Toby »

Got a vibration on my 2001 ZX12 at about 4 grand. It only comes in at about 3800 and is gone by 4500. Any ideas. ? Have any other ZX12 riders got Vibes. The bike has done 24,000kms.

mine has a slight bzzz around 4000 and another buzzy period around 9000
doesn't worry me at all (the 12s engine is smoother than my old 750s)

Thanks Smitty. Yeh its not a huge vibration but its enough to vibe the seat a bit.

Might be a standard ZX12 thing ???
