[QUOTE="Steve in Phx, post: 1403811, member: 19242"] Interesting subject. I have a 2007 AE. I don't think oil viscosity is the culprit. In my case, I've found that any chattering on my AE is a result of oil [U]temperature[/U]. Not to be confused with coolant temperature, which warms up more quickly than the oil. On cold mornings, my bike will sometimes chatter a bit. As the engine heats up, it goes away. This has been very consistent in my experience. Wouldn't this jive with your findings as well? [/QUOTE]
