High Speed Shakes

Hello everyone,

Have broken in my C50T and took it out on the highway to see what it can do. I found that above 65 mph there is a huge increase in the vibration and the engine sounds like it is not going to hold together. I was interested in finding out if this was normal or if I have a problem with my bike. It would be very uncomfortable to travel at 75 on my bike for any long distance. I did buy the bike knowing that most of the time I would be travelling backroads and not really going faster than 65 most of the time. But I thought that I would occasionally be able to take a highway trip.

Thanks in advance.

I get a bit of a rattle between 60 and 65, but it always sounds to me like it's coming from the windshield. Engine sounds fine.
