I know you originally stated that this problem began after your get off at the track. Did you try adjusting the clip on's - im thinking maybe they got moved just a little but are now not seated properly - hence the increased vibration? Thats really all i've got.

serious or sarcasm? explainOriginally Posted by Crash Dummy Denno
I am also now thinking perhaps something under one of the engine covers, was there damage to the cover? It could be something like the flywheel touching the inside of an engine case? Have you run the bike on a stand with all the bodywork off? You can use a screwdriver resting against parts of the bike to try and detect the origination of the vibration...
i vote TB sync, crash or not. you never know

You are all going to call me a dumb dumb, but the problem was with my triple clamp up top, the nut was loose in the middle and was causing most of the vibration, didnt notice it because my gps stem mount was concealing it. It was so loose the gps mount was the only thing holding it on.
good thing you caught that now, dumb dumb. had to.

Hard braking, or dragging them around all the time?

that is probably why the top nut was loose, the lower ones were tightened and locktighted because i was getting a clicking noise when i broke, forgot to locktight the top nutOriginally Posted by Jimmy 2 Shots
Just saw this, was going to say steering head bearings... and would have been closest.
