Anyone feel this? At 40 mph I get a vibration through the seat almost like you were sitting on a blender. It lasts till about 45mph and never really goes away at higher speeds. It’s uncomfortable. Also happens in lower gears as rpm’s rise. Tires are stock, correct inflation, 600 mi, 2 oil changes, chain adjusted and lubed. No engine mods. Wondering if anyone else has felt the same.

I know you said the chain is adjusted but the chain may well be oscillating. You can try re-adjusting the chain to a bit less slack. 1" slack is still within tolerance.

I get some vibration in the seat, I haven't narrowed down exactly when as I've been using the bike exclusively on varied speed roads. I don't have 600 miles on yet, so perhaps it gets worse with mileage, though I hope not. I can't say it's been overly annoying, but it's definitely there.

I read\saw something about how they do not balance the wheels on the trail because of the intended use-case. I can tell you the my wife's Super Cub is quite a bit smoother to drive. I have considered testing this out but who has time for that?
