Default Vibration in golf cart at certain speeds

After several miles, traveling at just under top speed, I can feel a vibration through the accelerator pedal. If I back off the speed a little it stops.

It never happens in the first few miles, or at lower speeds, so I assume something may be getting hot, expanding and rubbing.

Could it be a bearing in the motor, which is five years old?

The cart has been serviced every six months from new and nothing has been mentioned, although I doubt the service includes a run of several miles.

Thank you
