Still waiting on the exact problem to be pinpointed. He told me yesterday that the sprocket isn't bent. I'm going there after work this evening.

He ordered new bearings for it, so they should be here middle of next week. He cleaned up behind the cush thoroughly, and the vibration was cut down by at least 50%, but he did mention that the chain has a single spot in it kicks to the side while in motion. We're committed to figure this out though.

Got a call yesterday that its fixed. He replaced the wheel bearings and said he also tightened up the front fork trees. Pick it up tuesday, so I guess we'll see.

Well I picked up the bike yesterday, and was finally able to go ride today. Happy to report the vibration is completely gone! An added bonus is I got the chance to school a couple guys on 2 R6's through the twisties on my test ride. Excellent evening!
