Vibration!!

The other day in the hills my son was being challenged on his CRF250, He was having a tough time so i told him to take my EC300 and i would ride his bike out of the tough areas. When he got on my bike he asked why it vibrated so bad i told him maybe because it is a 2 stroke instead of a 4 stroke. So than after about 20 miles on his bike we got back to the truck refilled and than i got back on mine and noticed the vibration he was talking about, is this normal? Never rode a 4 stroke that long before, is a lot of vibration common or should i be thinking something is wrong?

this kinda came up on here in the last couple of weeks... read this for reference

now that being said, my 300 vibrates. When i ride it alot, I don't notice it at all. The only time I do notice it, is when I hop on my WR450 and ride for a while, then get back on it.(those stinking 4t's are way smooth) Check all the stuff in that thread, you are probably fine. it is probably just the difference between those 2 bikes..
