A thread on another forum on handbar vibration

Thanks for that. I need to do something on my R26.

Bifurcate, before it's too late

I have heard of some riders filling the bars with Kitty litter and capping the ends, inexpensive and light seems to help as long as there are no holes in the middle of the bars. This company makes a nice selection of bar ends.http://www.spieglerusa.com/controls/handlebar-ends.html

I find it easy to reduce/eliminate the vibration of the R26. Carefull research shows that the bars only vibrate when it is running. It is cheap and easy to just not run it.

That is how I fixed the vibration on my R25/3, just put it in the living room.

Free advice.

Does it have special preservative oil in the crankcase?

Oops, caught again. It WAS in the livingroom for many years.
Garnet and I enjoyed a very nice evening a few months ago. So, don't believe what you may have heard about him, he is OK.

the Best way to use shot in a handlebar is mix the shot with white or clear Silicone....

I found filling the whole bar effective in killing vibrations the rubber or silicone abrorbes the shot movement picked up from the bar
