Default Foot peg "buzz"

Had the Train out for a spin a little while back. Took her up to close to 90 (there is a nice straight line on the Autobahn here and no traffic, and hey, there are no speed limits) and I notice I get a pretty good "buzz" at my foot pegs. Now granted I rarely get her up to this speed, cause, I am not in the habit of becoming a fine pink mist on the highway dodging 150 mph German engineering, but still seemed odd. It doesn't show up until after 80 mph for sure.

Anyway, going to be putting her away for a couple months and just wondering if there is something I should be looking for. Front spokes maybe?

Thanks
