I noticed a high frequency vibration developing around 4000 RPM, which is very noticeable in the footpegs. The vibration seems to be directly proportional to RPM.

My Varkie is a 1999 model, and she has 160 000 km on the clock, and in very good condition. I am the third or fourth owner, and she seems to have been looked after.

I would like to gather information about possible causes before I take it to a workshop in Cape Town.

Thanking you in advance
