Back in August '15 I posted about a weird vibration in my engine on a 2014 Super Tenere ( http://www.yamahasupertenere.com/index.php?topic=16628.msg255150#msg255150 ). The bike had 13000 miles on it at that time. I did a throttle body synch and changed the plugs, and it cleared up. Now, five months and 4000 miles later, I seem to be experiencing it again. I'm just curious about how often the rest of you find that you have to do a throttle body synch, and if 4000 miles seems like an unusually a short interval between synchronizations. I haven't pulled the plugs yet to see what they look like, but 4000 miles seems like a pretty short lifespan for a spark plug. The bike doesn't act like it it's missing a plug; fuel consumption hasn't changed, the bike's power is normal, idle is normal, no hard start issues. Nothing is loose on the bike that would account for the vibration.
I just ordered my own Carb Tune, so I won't have to borrow my neighbor's; if this is something I have to do fairly often, it seems like a good idea to have my own.
