Seat "vibration" during idling

Vibration might not be a right word, more like tapping. It feels like there is a subwoofer under the seat. Is that normal?

Looks like you bought the MissFJ option package?

It just might be normal...There are a couple of factors to consider here...The first thing to determine is if it has done this since day one...If not, then it's likely that it could be coming from the seat being adjusted and set to a different position than you normally have it at...The rails underneath the seat aren't always perfectly notched and if the seat is resting a bit off what it should, you could be feeling vibrations that you normally wouldn't...

My seat will click and make a sort of bump like plastic hitting plastic if I have the height and the front lip angle set all the way to the bottom...I hope this helps you out and that it's nothing too serious...If all else fails, the seat and anything mechanical are covered under your warranty
