If you want a real challenge and want to be everyone's hero try to solve the 25 mph handle bar wobble. I am thinking of hiring Columbo maybe he can solve that case.
I'd bet it is the chrome cover on the exhaust downtube which is rivetted on with aluminum rivets. When you hear it, take your right foot and put up against it, and I bet it will stop.

I had a wobble that got worse over time and it was my front tire. It was no good from day one and drove me nuts.
A new Dunlop cured everything for me.
x2, except for me it was a new Pirelli.

I'l keep an eye out for an update. Cuttuing motor mounts hmmm. Concept being engine is tied too tight to frame therefore let engine shake more and frame less. Interesting. The vibration I'm experiencing sounds minor compared to what he had. Thanks again, Buz
