No, but I hardly notice it anymore. If it bothers me i'll get some little o-rings or something to try.

why would you wanna go get a vtwin like the 650r of 650f when you have the purring inline 4 of the fz64

I don't know
I commute 45 miles a day with this bike and I was considering the Ninja 650. Eventually I preferred the Inline 4 on the Ninja parallel twin, It has more power, it is bigger and you need mass on CA highways. Finally, let's not forget that Yamaha after market is much better then Kawasaki
I was hooked since the moment I started it on the dealer parking lot great bike

Yeah, a 10 mile road test sold me. I was actually suprised when the dealer said he would set one up for me to test after I expressed interest in the bike. (Full disclosure: I bought another bike from him the year before, and he knows I had been a mechanic at two other dealerships). But his willingness to let me try it made a sale for him.

No offense but it is a Yamaha 500.00 more isnt much for the higher quality in every aspect.
