I've got a vibration @ 30 mph coming from scooters foot board. It get worse until 40mph, then it really gets noticable. At 45-50 mph it is terrible. I have no idea what it could be. Also the vibration is rythmic. It comes & goes to a rythme. Gets much strong the faster I go. I'm going recheck, oil level, gear oil level, tighten the muffler, etc

I agree, I have had tires do exactly that. Sometimes they'll develop a little wart that wasn't there the day before and boom, you've got vibration problems. Spin both of them with a point of reference and look for humps and wobbles. Rich

Oddest thing. Weird feeling. Bashan how hard is replacing head on bashan 2008 |
