I don't travel the interstate that often, but I have noticed that my ST1300 has a pronounced vibration at 85mph (indicated 90). Not really a wobble, but a vibration that goes away immediately when I reduce speed. The best comparison I can give is that it feels like I'm riding over cobblestones. Today I had some clear freeway and the chance to experiment. The vibration stays when I pull in the clutch, so doesn't seem to be engine or driveline related. It definitely seems more pronounced in the handlebars versus the tank or dash.
I don't see anything unusual with the front tire. I did notice that there is very slight resistance when turning the wheel by hand that gets even slighter for around 30 degrees of travel. Warped rotor, maybe? My back tire has shown some uneven wear, but I would think that would cause more of a full chassis vibration rather than the handle bars. I have done the loosening/tightening sequence for the front axle and forks with Igofar's help, to no avail.
Any ideas? Thanks.
