This subject came up a few years ago. One thought that seemed to make sense was the poster had just changed his pipes. They were shorter then the stock pipes and ended just before the rear footpegs. It turned out that was where she was getting the vibration from.

Yes, I was feeling a bit of a vibration as well but only at certain rpms, the alignment seems to have taken care of it. My wife hasn't gone for a ride since so have to wait and see if it helps the vibration she was getting.

That is a good thought, I can't seem to get any info out of her. So you don't think much of the pegs on the swingarm being a factor? I thought I would have her lift her feet off the pegs the next time we ride. But the more I think about it I bet it is the helmet. You would think she would be able to realize that.

Yep I do have a tall sissy bar and short pipes. I'm going to have to try to get some info out of her this weekend. Thanks a lot you have all been a big help.
It did keep me from telling she was full of crap and suck it up.
