Just thought I'd drop in and see how y'all were getting on... Yes the CB is a memory for me now and I'm super happy putting mega miles on my guzzi again.
My experience was exactly the same as Olofs.
I think all in line 4s have an element of buzz but the CB was extreme in its buzziness.
As mentioned before, my round town bike is a 1970 triumph which vibrates a lot but doesnt buzz and never hurts my hands.
By way of definition I'd say the difference between a vibration and a buzz is the frequency.
It was a BIG problem on the CB after say 2 hours riding... And I often do many many more hours than that.
Hope you all have many great miles on your beautiful machines
Peace out
ps I had 4 people with maybe a combined 80-100 years riding experience of all makes of bikes try my bike (I work part time in a bike shop) and they all agreed that my bike was weirdly and unacceptably rough.
I'll leave it there!!!
