[QUOTE="Danny G, post: 1352912, member: 89138"] I posted a topic about a sensor problem when someone mentioned older bikes running smoother. (less vibration). I put just over 43,000 miles on my 2009 FJR before trading for a new 2014. I have around 25,000 on my 2014. From day one it seemed to me anything over 65 to 70 mph, the new bike has much more vibration. I went as far as adding heavy bar ends to quell the vibration. I know Yamaha went from a sleeved cylinder to coated. I thought I read they had also changed to a shorter piston skirt. Has anyone else experienced this or is it my imagination or just good justification to buy 2017 black six speed FJR. Danny [/QUOTE]
