I've put on nearly 200 miles on my EV this week and narrowed down the vibrations.

I have come to the conclusion that the vibrations are coming from the fork and throwout bearing. My master clutch and slave cylinders are shot and every time I have the vibrations my clutch pedal gets stuck to the floor and doesnt actually disengage the clutch until I pull it back up and pump it again. Then the vibrations go away immediately for while until the slave cylinder loosens again allowing the fork to bounce around.

I have not used any gas since getting my new EV plates! I like having way more range that I need in my daily like, so much that I don't even have to think about it.
