Lye, the thing about WA roads that amaze me is how long they last. You don't get the freeze and thaw that we do and the surface of your roads get a rough texture worn down from the "cager" wear. Our roads don't last long enough to get that rough texture worn into the tire grooves like the WA roads have. I was surprised how much quieter the vehicle is if I slide out of the tire grooves up there. I would tend to think you are feeling the wear grooves on the road.   Logged     Roadstar Pics ......................

I would tend to think you are feeling the wear grooves on the road. that is what i was thinking, but it is always better to ask questions. when i had my R6 i did not feel what i do with this bike and i am guessing it was because the r6 had a wider rear tire.   Logged     Keep the shiny side up!   The administrator has disabled public write access. #417931 Silverado (User) Expert Boarder Posts: 452 Re:08 roadstar ? 1 Year, 8 Months ago   Call a Yamaha dealer and explain it to the service manager. He will tell you to rotate the tires and let him know if it helped.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #418047 Lye (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 106 Re:08 roadstar ? 1 Year, 8 Months ago   Silverado wrote: Call a Yamaha dealer and explain it to the service manager.
