I need some help "again"

Anyway when i hit around 4k rpm i get a real bad vibration through my handle bars any suggestions on how to dampen it? i already have some soft "pro grip" handle grips i need something more b/c the vibration causes my hands to fall asleep. any suggestions would be great guys. thanks in advance.

 

Since mine doesn't vibrate, I'm inclined to encourage you to find out why yours does, instead of just having to compensate for it. These ain't Harleys, after all. : )

Does the engine's tone change when this is occurring? The servo motor starts moving the exhaust valve/intake flapper at about 3000, then again at 8000 rpm, so I hesitat to blame that system.....

Anyway, to start off, I'll just stick with that first question - are there any other abnormal indications or behavior besides the vibration itself.

 

Check your clipons mine had a small vibration that was doing the same thing and my clipons were loose I adjusted them and problem fixed. Sixs929 is right you shouldn't be getting much of a vibration. hope that's all it is good luck

 

thanks for the feedback guys. i had thought about my clipons possibly being the problem. I haven't had the time to check them yet but i will. If thats not it i have some other ideas in mind too..

Thanks again.

 

well, I checked my clipons, they are tight. I thought it might be a wheel bearing but it seems good. So now i'm not sure. I thought that maybe the front forks are bent. (i bought the bike used from private seller) so it could be possible. Any other ideas guys?

 

What about weighted bar ends. I've hear that weighted ones will help decrease vibrations. this true??

 

my 929 has a hullova lot more clipon vibration than the R6 I had previously. I think it's in it's nature. when I got the 929, it had aftermarket carbon-look (and smaller) barends. I swapped those out for OEM and it made a noticable difference. so my suggestion would first be to go to OEM barends if you have aftermarket (smaller). if you have OEM, go to a heavier aftermerket barend. some people have gone as far as to fill up the inside of their clipons with BB's and then screw on the barend.
