[Roadsters] re intermitant shaking

[Eddie]

Parts wear out.  Perhaps something got to a point where it "slipped" a 
little bit to create a vibration.

There is a long list of things the vibration could be.

I'd suggest a wheel alignment, as they will find if anything is loose in 
the front end and tell you before they do the alignment....
