Anybody else have a problem with vibrations in the front end at high speeds? (Triple digits) We did and replaced one set of rear bag guards for another, seemed to solve most of the problem.

The ones we removed were MC Enterprises part ##1300-002
The new smaller ones are from the same company part ##1300-007

I've done 140-180 kph from time to time on our tollways and gone up to over 200kph on deserted provincial roads in the north... Have never experienced any front end vibrations at all! And that's always with the side panniers but never with a rear top box w/c some claim could cause weavings....

Haven't heard of a front end vibe in the ST's, just rear end wobble in the 03's...

Did you try riding the bike with no bag guards, to see how that affected it?
