How to help with your handle bars Vibration

[lasxgames]

(ANTI VIBE BAR)

Old school

Fill your handlebars with lead shot size 8 or 9. Cap the ends with silicone.

(caution lead is harmful if sucked on or swallowed)

They help to reduce the vibration of the bike that you feel through the handlebars. This reduction in vibration translates into less fatigue and numbness in your arms and hands.

You say that is does work good????? My clutch hand is forever going numb. There has been several times I would have to stop and shake it out while racing.

good set of grips makes more difference (I like oury)

steering stabilizer wont help with vibration but does alot to take the jerk and jars out of ruts, roots, and rocks

A Quick Search produced several Methods....Here are a few....

you can use great stuff foam insulation in comes in an aresol can and you just spray it into your bars and it expands and hardens and absorbs vibration i use it in my bikes and works great for less than $5 and no added weight you can get it at hardware stores

Go to the local tire shop and get some junk lead tire weights. Stuff some paper in the end of your bars to a depth of about 6-8 inches. Melt the lead in an old kitchen ladel with a propane tourch and pour it in the end of the bars.

Use better Grips,,,, Foam or Gel

If your hands are going numb dont hang on so Hard

I like that expanding aerosol foam idea. We use that stuff at work, and it just so happens that I have some in my garage. I will try it in the bars on my 500R, if it works as well as you say, I may even try filling the entire frame with it.

[mywifeknowseverythin]

Ive never tried the foam....I pulled that info from some site....But I am curious to know if it does work.....

Still gonna make it to the Clean Up????

I have every intention of attending, I have my cabin reservation paid for and the day off work on Friday. My friend with the trailer who is driving us down broke threw his chain and broke his case around the shifting shaft. We are fixing it hopefully today. We are trying this brazing material called HTS-2000 to try and weld the piece back on. There isn't enough room to get a TIG torch in to where the cracks are, so this seems to be our best option. If that doesn't work, we are putting the motor out of my '04 TRX in his quad since I haven't gotten the title for mine yet and can't register it. One way or another, we are going to make it work.
