Handle bar vibration
I know several members have also switched over to lower bars and bar end mirrors and I wonder if anyone else has run into this.
I went with the Daytona bars and had very little of the shimming issues some have noted though I did need to add shim stock on the stock mounts.
The biggest thing I ran into is the internal bar weights would not fit with the bar end mirrors I got from Superstore.
I deleted them and things were ok but I find that after 90 minutes or so of continuous riding the fingers are numb and sort of useless. This weekend I put the weights and stock mirrors back in and did a long test and no discomfort.
This was really disheartening because I think the stock mirrors look off with the lower rise Daytona bars.
It is also a real example of the level of engineering that Honda put into these machines. You never really notice any vibration or buzzing, the fingers just go numb and stop working.
Any have any work arounds or fixes?

RE: Handle bar vibration
No, you're clear enough. I'll see if i can come up with a set of the Shadow weights and give them a try. The issue is annoying because there really is no noticeable vibration to complain about, even without the weights. Just the numbness after fairly long periods. In the mean time I scrounged up a set of shorter rectangular mirrors from a friend to try. They look better than the stockers.
