    I have 800 miles on my new SP3 and under exceleration starting at 115-125 and on there is a front end vibration / shake. I read that the 16 was super stable despite the lack of a steering dampener. Is this to be expected? Do I need to have the dealer add some weights to the front and rear rims? Check the balance? Thanks all!

    Wheels out of balance usually show no symptoms over 80ish, handle bars are a bit zingy at high revs and you will get a slight momentarily shake of the bars under hard exceleration and this is nothing to be concerned about.

    Also higher speed wheel balance is usually the rear wheel

    Sounds like wheel balance to me.
