| Seems like a great bunch on here!! I have a newbie question...I came off a Roadstar with the v-twin. It was fairly smooth on accel from a stop. My vision seems to have a vibration when I'm pulling away from a stop , its the same sensation as a driveline being out of phase...( which I know is not the case here) Is this normal for this bike? Its not really bad, just different. It smooths out once I'm on my way. |

Welcome to the Vision world. It's a great motorcycle. |

| I have lloydz timing wheels (ATS) and I think it smooth a lot of the motor out its worth the $162. Second I changed spark plug wires. I bought them from witchdoctor. Motor feels way better.
I think you're compensating sprocket is what your feeling. The springs in them could be bad.

Posts: 1290 Ruskin, Fl | I was going to ask about last oil change. I know I'm due, even if miles don't indicate being due, when I get a "shudder" on take off. Basically the clutch doesn't seem to engage smoothly. Seems different from what you describe, but figured I'd throw that out there. |
