Mine did that- and I'm still trying to find a replacment switch.

I just hard wired the lights to be permanently on.
Possibly dangerous but I'll get round to bodging up a replacment one of these days.

I had problems on my old XBR. The big thumper had a fair amount of vibration. It was a still a great bike though but it could never be sure it would get me from A to B and back again without something messing up. That was the main reason I changed to the VFR at the time.

i had a gs thou years ago-why do bit fall off it then? the motor was extremely smooth as i recall.
perhaps you should get ravin to tighten your nuts?

I sat on my bike the other day with jeans on and not leathers, and I noticed how much mine vibrates wwww.gif

With the shakes I keep getting I think I'm going to end up with "Vibration White Finger" or whatever they call it,

Apparently a fair amount of Miners up this way came down with it because of inadequate health & Safety or something.
