'95 K75RT vibration/noise below 2500 rpm
« on: September 04, 2019, 02:26:52 PM »
There is a low frequency vibration that occurs upon take off and always disappears at 2500 rpm.
Any comments or suggestions?

I'm guessing the sloppy fit between the output shaft and the balance shaft.  Rattles and clanks between 1500 and 2000rpm on my K75RT.

Thank you very much!
Thought it might be the resonant frequency of the Fairing.   Guess not.

My 75s does it too. These engines don't seem to enjoy low RPM's
