Mine did this. Remedy? I took all the other keys off my key chain. 

This is a normal, unmodified quote above ^^^.

This is the code for the quote.

In general, when you are quoting someone and responding to that quote, you should put your own response where I have put the number 2.  If you don't care about confusion/mis-read posts, go ahead and respond where I have put number 1.

Not a rant, just trying to help maintain clarity on the board.  Thanks!

i tried that once after i finished changing my oil, my eyes where tearing up so bad, i could barely see only going 15 or 20. i couldn't ride without something in front of my eyes.

I too have a strange ringing/metallic rattling noise around 4000-6000 rpm's...
I thought it was my keychain too, I tried to hold the keys firm with my hands but to no avail....
Seems like it's located near the instruments/right grip zone, yet I can't see/hear anything loose or vibrating.

did you try tightening the bolts in your neck

[simon79]

^^^^^^^^^^^
Yup...checked'em out already, they're nice and snug

4000-6000 rpm is when the fuel tank vibrates?

idk if this has been mentioned, but the glass in my mirrors vibrates at certain rpms.  That sound drove me nut untill I discovered its source.  It almosts sounded like valve clatter...I thought I had a mechanical problem.  It was amazing, I could fix the valve clatter by holding my mirror.

Yes, as some people here have said, this is the tank vibrating range.
Yet I'm skeptic about this as regards my case, 'cause tank rubber (under C-shaped bracket) is in place, and the vibration pitch seems to me to be too high to be related to a large part like the fuel tank.
No big issue, though...It's something I can live with.
