Jim,


I vote for flywheel. Things may have gone unexpectedly wrong there. You could check that without disassembly. Other possibilities are going to get more complicated.

Bottom end has 20k miles on it. Crank was magnafluxed, balanced with Dale bolted flywheel.

Vibration just became noticeable within the last 500 miles.
