has anyone got any idea what could be causingmy p38 to vibrate between 50&60mph,i've had the wheels rebalanced and that got rid of the vibration through the steering wheel but you still get vibration through the seat and accelerator,any ideas would be most appreciated,cheers cliff

It was the universal joint on the front prop shaft on mine it was horible. Ended with a complete new shaft.
