Bad Vibrations

[Shaggy2Dope]

ok i have a 98 cr250 and i vibrates pretty bad. mainly just b4 it snaps into band. do all the 98 CR250's do this, or is there just sumtin wrong with my bike (like usual:rolleyes: ) and if it is jus my bike how could i fix it. MCL

[crustyfmx250]

start by tightening all the bolts, and see if that helps.

but i have heard that the 98/99 cr's were pretty bad with vibration thru the frame

[chuck]

try tightening up your motor mounts and steering stem, mine was a little loose one time and vibrated really bad

Yah, the 250's didnt come out with rubber bar mounts till 99'. Before then they had a rep for bad vibration.

One of my kids works for Crank Works here in town. http://www.crankworks.com/

Anyhow, stock bikes' cranks are not balanced to a very tight tolerance. Many factory and privateers send their new cranks to them to have them balanced to a 0 runout to rid of this and have a longer lasting and faster reving engine.

If a new crank is not handled carefully, it will get knocked out of balance and vibrate badly. (never hammer a crank into a case)

man.. he looks just like john. lol

I know what you mean. He sounds like him too. And Robert and my youngest look alike. Still trying to remember what the milkman and mailman looked like back then. I think... maybe... NOT. LOL

Fill your frame rails with mono foam, i heard it works good.

Get bar inserts if ure bars are vibrating.
