I think there may have been an issue with your bike, Richard. They're only a little buzzier at higher-than-cruising rpms, and the '04s are a little smoother with the 2-spark. Throttle body synch has a big influence, as does ergonomics of how your hands rest on the grips. I've ridden mine 350+ miles/day and had no issues. I'm not aware of anyone on the R1100S board having serious issues. Some have used bar backs to move them up and back for more touring comfort. The twin vibes are more tolerable than the I4 vibes, IMHO.
