	Does anybody out there have any experience with the BMW R65
	vibration problem, starts at about 4500rpm ?
	Does anybodyknow if BMW has plans to provide a retrofit fix
	anytime in the near future ?

If you don't already belong to the BMW Motorcycle Owners of America,
a check for $15 sent to

	BMWMOA
	P.O. Box 128
	Florissant, MO  63032

will bring you many benefits, including receipt of the monthly
"BMW News."  There have been a number of articles in this magazine's
technical section dealing with this vibration problem.  Dave Parker
has published step-by-step instructions, using parts from automobile
applications, to modify the engine mounts on the R-65.  I don't have
my back issue reference library handy (we're moving our household),
but Dave's address is:

	Dave Parker
	Secretary, BMWMOA
	Editor, Tech Tips, BMW News
	508 West Golf Road
	Libertyville, Illinois  60048

He'll probably be able to send you copies of the relevant articles.
