.....if it could be FD related. I serviced my 1200ST 6 weeks or so ago, including dropping the FD and putting fresh oil in. I've noticed a vibration that I've never noticed before (had the ST 6 years now), and its enough to deaden my right hand, and give me tingly feet, over a 120-miles or so cross-country ride - the only time it used to bother me prior to this year was on longer m'way runs.
Is the shaft balanced at all ....as in, should I have put it back together exactly the same as it came apart, or doesn't it matter if its been rotated before sliding it together? On previous services, and I've done the FD every year, the splines have gone back together easily....this time I had a right old job.
I can't think of anything else that could be causing it....TBs balanced, tappets done, PR3s just fitted, Jim Hill gave it a quick once-over and said all was good. P'raps its just me with another year under my belt and I'm less resilient than I was...
Feel free btw to launch scathing and vitriolic criticism!
