exhaust

I have a roar/vibration, at particular rev'es, though not all the time, which is frustrating, coming from what appears from the exhaust, someone said resonance, is that possible, and is there a cure, because it can be very loud, everything underneath has been checked, nothing loose, heat protectors are all in good condition, and firm....

If it happens about 1700 rpm, it could be one of the roof struts vibrating (a known problem in a tourer). Try pressing up centre of the roof lining between the 'B' posts when it happens. If it is, the cure is mastic between the strut and the roof.
