MT07 vibrating left footrest

[Mt07biker]

My left footrest vibrates, I tried lubricating it no joy -any ideas what could be causing it or anyone had similar experience?

Also anyone recommend a good guide to carb syncing my fuel injectors?

Try posting in biker banter section you might get more help in there.

A vibrating footrest might be loose, so slacken off the bolts then re-torque them to factory specifications. They may be rubber mounted so check the rubber hasnt perished.

You can download a copy of the workshop manual here:

You will find the correct procedure for balancing / synchronising the throttle bodies. Please note it may be worth checking and adjusting the valve clearances first before throttle body adjustment.

I have used that website to get manuals for my FZ1, a 2012 R1 and Honda SP2's.

As above if you've had the bike a while and its just started doing it its well worth going over the bike in detail.

It could be an engine issue or it could be chain / sprocket related or even a bearing (wheel or sprocket carrier).

I'd do the easy stuff first so check for loose mounting bolts, check tension and condition of the chain and sprockets, also for play in the rear sprocket.

Maybe not so easy to tell but does it vibrate when not moving, just with the engine running, maybe at certain revs. Could narrow it down.

Thanks for the replies, engine only done 6500miles, and it’s constant vibrating at all revs only while moving. I check the bolts etc. And thanks for link to Manuel

At least he's aware something needs to be done with the throttle bodies - lots of people who "home service" things dont know about it / dont bother with it on the basis of "it runs alright, why bother?".

There's heaps and heaps of jobs that never get done on bikes, more chassis stuff than engine stuff but still equally as useful to do.
