does anybody with a 929 have any vibration problems because mine does and i was just wondering if anyone knows what it is and how to fix it

I have a buddy that has a 929 and he is limited to his speed and some stunts because of major vibrations! He has put a steering dampner and played with fork and shock settings and tire air pressures and he said it is alot better---sorry I can't be more help

have your tire rebalanced by a reputable shop. a freind of mine had massive vibrations at 110-125, after he wrecked. he said that honda balanced the tire when it got repaired, but i told him to have it done at another shop and it fixed it.

If you have ever wrecked or you have dropped a wheelie REALLY hard you prob. have a slight bend in your rim and balancing should fix it

underinflation can cause tire cupping-41/41 psi will get the most wear out of your tires- a little less for stunts
