I have put over 1000 mile in a few short weeks on my new 2018 RT. I really love this bike but am questioning how much vibration, in terms of high frequency vibration I should expect, if any, at higher RPMs. Anywhere over 4000 RPMs the engine smoothness disappears and through all touch points I can feel pretty, strong vibration. I did some freeway milage today and being in 6th and going above 70 was not pleasant. The road called for 85mph and it was pretty rough. The sweet spot seems to be 60-65 in 5th or 6th. So the difficult thing for me is my experience is subjective and I have no baseline. Perhaps what I am experiencing is normal and I am being over sensitive. I am not sure how to definitely figure this out. I would perhaps need to find someone to swap bikes that are similar. I did mention it during the first service, but they said everything appears to be fine. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
