Reducing vibration at the bars?

[Kwattro]

Will heavier bar ends and different grips help reduce vibrations on the highway? What do you recommend?

steering stabilizer is the best way to go...imo

I thought these bikes came with a factory stabilizer? It's that damn high frequency buzzing that numbs my hands. Otherwise the bike is great with the HeliBars and Buell peg kit.

Thought mine is very smooth. Could it be that you are holding onto the bars too tight when cruising? For me the bars are just a place to rest my hands, while supporting my torso with back muscles and gutt against the tank.

Could be, I'll pay more attention to that.

Yes the wieght is nice but Throttle meister for cruise control is just junk..and not safe.. very tough to set, and a pain in the ass to unset im emergency.
Had a set and hated them

Well, for my unsophisticated eyes, they are well made with the finest materials. Maybe since I've used Vista Cruise and Vanda Cruse units on some of my past bikes, this Throttlemeister unit is not an obstacle for my safety and efficient usage....not in twisties, just on interstates to give my right wrist a break. As far as an emergency, I wouldn't try to unset it, I'd just roll off the throttle. Raydog

I got some vibrations when i put in a set of spacers to lower my front. I bought some rubber washers to put in between the spacers and and top clamp. I got a new triple tree before i got a chance to try 'em but I still think it would help, and it only cost a few dollars and the hardware store

Is it heavier than stock?If yes how much differnce worth the $$$?

 

[Jdog109socal]

Yes they are heavier.. Dont get me wrong here they are nice but i didnt care for them as a cruise control..Vista cruirses always work the best for me... not sure if they are worth the money just for a bar end///
