I had taken off the rear gaurd(The grab) in my dad's bike for sometime and the bike used to rattle at speeds of 70+kays. But the problem vanished when I installed it back. The bike was very stable thereafter and cruising on highway at 80kays was pretty easy.
Hope you get well soon. Wish you a speedy recovery. |
Dude !!!!
The tail section is weighs not more than 2 kilos i guess... So if you hear rattling sound i guess there had to be some loose plastic part....
I dun see how only by removing the tail the bike would have an effect on handling or on NVH levels.... The bike felt great and i did not find any difference...
See that bike would be less prone to vibes as it has less amount of plastic... It would even help more, if the side pannels and the front attachment was removed...
