Hi Bonniebird,
Don't know if this will help but it worked on my 800gs. vibration coincided with typical cruising speed. went up one tooth on the front sprocket. This shifted the
vibration up the rev range. Made little difference to the bottom end gearing but made
main road travel a lot more comfortable.No reason not to try the silicone filling, it
may possibly shift the vibration frequency a bit.
Don't worry about the bugs at the camp site. They are really friendly and like company,
just don't leave the tent flap open. Looks like there will be a good number of ABR types
at the bokki site, see you there.
