Windshield vibration when motor idle

Hi all! I bought new 2023 c400gt scooter. I have also problems with vibration as already described here in other topics. My question is: does your windshield and mirrors vibrates when engine running idle? Mine yes…
Tried to watch YouTube but I think because of modern video cameras (they smooth videos) I can’t see the vibration on videos….

I don't recall being distracted by vibrating mirrors or windshield at idle (although the bike does vibrate a bit more at idle, certainly, than it does in motion).

If you can wait a month(!) -- see https://www.bmw-scooters.com/index.php?threads/c-400-gt-it-appears-that-i-have-a-coolant-leak.2722/ -- I'll take a video using one of my GoPro cameras, but first turn Hypersmooth completely off. (Hypersmooth is the term GoPro uses for its stabilization, i.e., smoothness, and it's completely software-based -- you can turn it completely off in an option-setting screen.)

Well, I wouldn't say that they vibrate very strongly and interfere with me. It's just that when you ride a new scooter there are a lot of new emotions and you don't pay attention to many things. Then these first emotions pass and you begin to notice what you didn't notice at first. So I just can't remember whether the windshield was vibrating at idle initially or not.

Of course I can wait for your video

I do know that at idle the RPMs flip-flop between 1,400 and 1,500, as I’ve watched that a bunch of times on the Urban screen.

Is that the idle RPM on yours?
