Hi all, the vibration you describe should come in around 2800 revs and minimise around 3800 revs and happens on every triple I've ridden. It's caused by the triple harmonics causing the clutch basket to vibrate; it can't be cured but can be changed or minimized by taking the basket off and shimming the free play out using Triumph shims sold for that purpose. I've done it a few times, it's not difficult if you know your way around a clutch but free play naturaly comes back in time. Hope this helps, cheers, Watty ( Washington, England)
