Handle bar vibration...

Handle bar vibration...
I dropped my bike while stopped a couple of days ago and have replaced the bar end weights. It now feels like there is more vibration from in the handle bars in general and when I'm going about 80-90kms if I let go of the bars they actually start to shake. Can anyone tell me if this is from the new bar weights or if I could of damaged the front suspension.

I don't see how the bar weights would cause this... you could always take them off and see if it stops. How bad was the drop? Did the front hit anything or did you just lay it down on its side? Is the lead weight missing from the front wheel... the one used to balance it?

The bar end weights are also there to reduce vibration you'd feel in the clip-ons.

Just to add.....
Whhels are normally minimally off balance the weights are more for the tyre. The bar end weights can effect vibration, but it depends on what you mean by vibration? a little or a lot? I`d check all the points mentions by Don but using different bar ends other than stock will makle a difference in vibration more so on the hands.
