Great job Trout.

Whenever I read threads like this, like Indy, it makes me want to try it. But, like Indy, I bet my bike doesn't need it. So I'm just going to lay down until the feeling goes away.

 

I thought this.

I could not hear anything to indicate it needed doing either.

however - after doing the balancer adjustment - i found the bars less buzzy and the bike felt a little smoother.

it's only a subtle thing but it can make a difference.

 

That's always how I feel when I change the oil. Is it my imagination?

Maybe I'm just old, but after riding a while my hands get so numb I can barely feel them. So I might try it.

 

Rode the **** off my bike into work and back today then putting it in the
garage I opened up the throttle only to notice she was vibrating like a
SOB , so thanks for the refresher here Dylan , least reading it now I
don't have to pull the fairing off...... just drop it on the 93

I was kinda redlining her a bit this morning getting away from some DB in
a sh!tbox Jag ...... ****en showed him --- lol lol hopefully the balancer
will do it for now ! only starts whining chattering from 4 k up


Bet Dylans Bike is still dirty too

 

Tryin' to catch me ridin' dirty!!

 

thanks for this awesome writeup. i went out and adjusted mine and then took it for a spin and it felt pretty good. How often again do you adjust this?

 

decided today to do my ballancer adjustment,anything that helps for a smoother ride has to be tried,when i got to my adjuster it was seized and would not move with my usual screwdriver,however after soaking in wd40 and using my big driver it eventually moved so did the adjustment.just now waiting for the rain to go off so as i can see if any difference .been pissing down here for 2 days.

 

This would work for a 87 CBR 1000f as well right?

 

Yes.

 

Awesome! Thank you.
