I have a problem. Can someone help. :???:

I was experiencing severe vibrations between 4 and 5000 rpm. I mentioned this to my dealer when I took the bike in for it's 6000 mile service and was told there was no problem. The problem persisted. I returned to the dealer, who, after a proper look told me the cam chain tensioner was not keeping the cam chain tight and needed to be replaced. I was told no damage had occured. The tensioner has been replaced but the vibration is still there, just as bad and now the engine lurches, unless it is being ridden hard (not too hard mind), at anything under 6000 revs. I will be taking back to the dealer this week, but if anyone can hint at what this problem is I may be able to enlighten the mechanic.

Many thanks.
