Is it when the RPMs get higher in the vid after he shifts to pick up speed? Like after he winds it out a little? Because I can hear the tank tube vibration at that point. I know. I left my tube alone and just listen to the vibration at those rpms. Doesn't bother me much so I didn't do anything to it.
(Note: I have 6000 miles or so on the same bike and engine)
Otherwise, apart from the tank tube sound I hear the standard exhaust and engine sounds at the different RPMs. It sounds like a working xpect.
From a much broader perspective, what I can say is if it sounds like the video, you don’t have to worry. Just ride. If it breaks maybe I was wrong. But I don’t think it will. I think you're overanalyzing the engine sound if you already got rid of the tank tube vibration. Ride and enjoy.
