2022 Venom Ghost

I put new chain sprocket on and has made a big difference. The bike handles great until about 50 mph. Then it vibrates pretty bad still. But I only have less than 300 miles on it. Does it get better after break in, is this common or do I have something else going on. I have tripled checked rear wheel alignment and chain slack. They look good. Thanks

Have you checked the wheels to make sure they are balanced? My brother's Ghost was nowhere near close.

The only accurate method for checking alignment is to measure from the middle of the swingarm pivot bolt to the middle of the axle. You need the same measurement on both sides. Don't rely on the alignment marks on the swingarm.

That being said, Yeah you should check your wheels for trueness and balance. Youtube has instructional vids.
