Hi i am new here . I am looking to buy a sliver t bird and was wandering if the bb kit causes alot more vibrations I saw a video on youtube that had a camera mounted to one with a bb kit and the vibrations were bad I like to have the extra power but not at the cost of vibrating like a harley.

No one can tell you because no one has the BB kit yet. As far as i know they haven't even begun to ship yet. Only the promo bikes have them at this point, and thats what you saw on you tube. But i doubt you can go by a you tube video. If a camera is mounted on a part of the bike that has even a little vibration it could potentially cause the video to look like theres much more.

I know the video you are talking about.

This one I take it... (Go to 5:45)

That was simply a mounting issue on the camera. It really doesn't take much to get vibration going in a little camera. The bb kit isn't going to cause any significantly greater vibration than the stock bike.

thanks I am new to triumphs thought that it might be the camera mount but I was wanting your opinions before I buy any thing thanks again for the quick response

In the first section, with the camera pointed toward the rider, there is zero vibration. Very little in the third as well. It's only the segment were the camera is pointed backwards.

If the bike has systemic vibration issues, you'd see it in all segments.
