2009 Sprint ST with ABS
Bike has the original tires on it. 1800 miles total
If you take the bike over 80 on the freeway you can feel a vibration in the bars. The bars do not move at all. it tracks straight and nothing pops or cracks under braking/hard acceleration.
My questions is, can the original tires cause a vibration at that speed that would not be noticed at a lower speed? Can a out of balance wheel do this? Can it be the RPM of the motor at that speed that is causing this? What should I be looking for if there is nothing that stands out and it doesn't do it at lower speeds? I have never come across this on a bike before so any input would be great.
