I just moved from a 2012 with 24K to a 2017 with (now) 2K. I notice much less vibration on the bottom end (~1k-4.5K RPM) on the new bike. I presume that is due to the improved clutch basket on the Gen 2 bikes. Once the bike revs at or above 5K RPM it feels like it vibrates (mostly in the bars) more than the old bike. I don't spend much time at the higher RPMs, but sometimes I delay an upshift if there is another tight corner coming up.
It is possible this is all in my head and the vibration feels more pronounced only because they are so minimal at the lower RPMs so I tend to notice them more. For the folks that have extensive seat time on old and new bikes did you notice the variation difference that i see ?
cheers!
