Invisible_Man Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 Hi, My CG125 is producing high frequency vibrations through the foot rests. It's so bad that I have numb feet all day! It happens throughout the Rev range however seems less vibey at full revs. Going down gear produces lower frequency vibrations. I've checked-All boltsValvesChainWheel bearings Foot rests.. Even changed get the rubbers. I'm on the verge of selling it as it's now so uncomfortable to ride! It's now just an expensive vibrator loI'm thinking main bearings. There is a rumble but not constantly. And it has been there for at least 5k.Any thoughts on what else to check? IM Quote
Tango Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 Are the engine mounts secure?......did you check the engine mount bolts? Quote
Invisible_Man Posted October 9, 2014 Author Posted October 9, 2014 Hi, Yep all engine bolts are tight. Even the ones you can't easily get to. I did notice tonight that if revved with the clutch in while still rolling there is next to no vibes. Thinking it my be a clutch issue. Cheers, Shaun. Quote
Tango Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 Could be that the clutch basket is loose..... Dunno if that engine has a counterbalance shaft......but, if it does, could be loose or slipped position..... Quote
Invisible_Man Posted October 9, 2014 Author Posted October 9, 2014 Hi Tango,Thanks for the replies No balancer shaft on the humble CG125 Gonna strip the clutch out and see if i can find ought wrong. Cheers,IM Quote
