Back Fender Vibrates! 6 Years, 1 Month ago
|
|
I have noticed that when my "05" brand new Roadie" is idleing the back fender vibrates. Is this common? Do I have to worry about something coming loose or breaking? Just a newbie with a great Motorcycle that worries....Any help will be appreciated..

Frankallen:
The "tail wag" is a result of the lope that is caused by the single-pin crank.
Actually, this has been an issue for the 99-03 Road*. If you look, the rear fender is comprised of two sections. The two sections are secured by a bracket on the backside of the fender. The bracket on the 99-03's was inadequate and had a tendency to crack. The tail wag didn't help matters any.
Anyway, this was a easy fix for Yamaha, so on the 04-up Road*, the fender bracket has been reinforced and should not pose any issues.
Thanks.

I would rather be on my bike thinking about God, than sitting in church thinking about my bike.

With my hard bags on, it's not so much like waggin' her tail, but more like shakin' her beautiful, big fat a... well, you get the idea...
