Nothing compares to the original. It's only $20 each

Just loosen up the death grip while riding.
Extra weight high up near handlebar level just require more effort in steering, lean and body shift to compensate.
In fact the engine vibe is not damped by the extra weight, only transmitted to your body in frequency that you are less sensitive to. You're getting shaken up whether you feel it or not.
Seems to me, extra weight just defeats the purpose of all the mods to make bike faster.
