Hey, I've been riding 07 gixxer 750 for some 5 years now and recently traded up for a 2012 r1 TC. The bike was crated and I got it new with 0 miles from a dealership.
While I expected the ride to be different I feel like something is off, during acceleration in low to mid range it feels like theres a rattle, hard to explain, theres no rattle sound, more like a rattle feeling in the handlebars thats not there when maintaining speed. Similar feeling you get when the chain is too loose. Trying to brake it in easy so havent taken it over 7k rpm to see how it feels there. I dont know if its just how the R1 runs or if ive been on the gixer too long. Anyone had a similar experience?
