Buzz after 90mph?

Ok, I think I have stock gearing and I know I have a stock tire. At 85mph, the bike is doing 4500rpm. If I increase speed to 90mph, I can feel a vibration in the footpegs. It is very noticeable. If I reduce speed to under 90mph, the vibration disappears. Any ideas? I know, I should be going slower but on some of these Chicago hwys, if you're not doing 80, you're getting run over.
 
every engine has a resonate range where there is inherently more vibration. You just found it. There is nothing wrong with your bike.

I have the same thing. At 4500RPM, there is a noticeable buzz. Happens in all gears, it's RPM based. I asked about it too and it's normal. It's your bike's way of saying "ooh! Time to play!" :thumbsup:
