Picked up 2017 se model today. Managed to get 100miles in. First impressions re vibrations is that, subjectively, there is still IL4 buzz, but much less intrusive than what I remember on 2016 demo bike. For me, the main perception of any vibration, arose during engine breaking through seat and pegs in very narrow rev range. Returning back to biking after 30 year years, no issues with my 'biker virgin' ass and hands, and both totally oblivious to any vibration.
Heated grips seemed to work much better on new bike compared to my recollection of the demo bike. About 8-10degC today here in Dorset, wearing alpine star sp8. Grips at times felt quite toasty in level 2. I do wonder if the current supplied to the grips is modulated depending on engine revs and alternator load,, as at other occasional times during the ride, the grips whilst quite adequate, did not feel quite so toasty.
Bikes tucked up in the garage, snuggled up with oxford hardcore chain and ground anchor, awaiting next good weather window.
Merry xmas all
