| newbie 888 query
Hi Guys,
After years (and years) of lusting after a Duke, I've finally bit the bullet and bought a nice original 888 Strada (16,000 miles) off eBay. Its a bit of a culture shock after my RG500 but I'm slowly getting to gribs with the handling!
My query relates to what constitutes 'normal' levels of engine vibration. The engine is super smooth up to about 6,000rpm but above that there is noticable tingling through the bars when giving it serious stick. Nothing major but given its a Ducati I'm paranoid that it may be an early sign of bearing wear somewhere! The belts and valves are due for change/check very soon so I'm intending on dropping the engine out later on in the year for a careful check
Any comments would be much appreciated.
