All possible. But there were two of us, on two different bikes (his was the regular XB9R, and mine was the city cross version), different heights, different builds, same result -- we just felt like we were being shaken like a martini.

Also very possible.

No, Nick & I rode them at bike week last year, so they're demo models - quite possibly ridden hard & put up wet - repeatedly.
It wasn't the "raw" I didn't like, it was just the shaking, the vibration, and oh yeah, the shaking.
