Got an NC700X two weeks ago. I have around 600 miles on it. From the time that I picked it up from the dealer it has had an odd vibration between 50 and 55 MPH in top gear (2,500 - 3,000 RPM) - on an older bike you would swear that the chain was badly and unevenly stretched - however if you pull in the clutch or change down to 5th the vibration immediately goes away. Running at 2,500 - 3,000 in any other gear is perfectly smooth and running in top outside that speed range (above or below) is also perfectly smooth. The chain is properly adjusted and lubricated. Unfortunately about 16 miles of my daily commute is in traffic that typically moves at about 50 - 55 and the constant pulsing/vibration is very annoying; the other 34 miles are on faster or slower roads and the bike is perfect on those sections. Does anyone else have the same issue? If they all do it I can live with it, but if nobody else has a similar problem I'll get the dealer to take a look at it.
Cheers, Steve.
