1982 GS1100G - High frequency BUZZZ / Vibration

The carbs are way out of synch.

Does anyone have any idea what could be the cause of a high frequency buzz / vibration that occures at around 60MPH and 4,000 rpm. It shakes the keys and they buz. When I hold the keys, the vibration is this there. You can even feel it on the gas tank. It sounds and feels just like when you BUZZZZ with your teeth.

The only thing I can think of is that it may have something to do with the valves???


I just got this bike, so don't really have a good feel for it yet. My 1980 GS850G definately does not vibrate like that.

It looks like you have checked the rubber mounting pads at the front of the tank, but are the rubber isolators still OK on the mounting bolts at the rear of the tank?

You can order these OEM parts from BikeBandit, or improvise using rubber corks from the hardware store.
