I recently changed the oil in my 95 Savage. After the oil change I've seemed to pick up a vibration around 60 MPH. Another thing I've noticed is that the shifting doesn't appear to be as smooth as it was before the oil change. For Example, at a stop it seems that I'm having trouble downshifting. This doesn't happen all of the time, but more frequent then usual. It's as if you are already in first gear. It also felt like that it may have slipped from 5th to 4th. When I say felt like it slipped, I thought I was in fifth, but it turned out to be in only 4th gear. The bike acted as if it had downshifted, but it was windy! (I mean WINDY) I used yamaha brand oil and have had success in the past with this brand. Everything else seems to be fine. Any suggestions as to what I might try?
