Smooth as glass: vibration-free bars

[Nightengale_imp]

Hmm. Interesting observations.

My '14 standard 'buzzes' in the bars (stock grips / stock weights) at around 3900 - 4xxx (forget, it's winter here) with a annoying vibration. I pulled the stock weights and assembly complete out to learn what was in there. The weights inside the bar aren't that heavy and it appears to me that changing this to a denser material would be worth trying. I also thought about using lead shot inside the bars...

I don't ride fast or in high RPM's most of the time. So just loping along at the posted speed limits (two-lane highways, so 50-60 mph) I get irritated at the buzziness of the bars. It sounds like the CB500F internals and weights would fit the stock bars. I don't want a more forward lean, so I'd not be interested in the CB500F bars, just the weights.

If anyone knows for certain this will work - I'll go buy the pieces. Or try the 1 lb bar weights (where do you find these?)

Also intend to change out the stock grips, they're marginal at best.
