Default Vibranator and a damn cool pic :)

....Nooo.....not what you all thought it was people!!!!

My hands have been going a little numb on longer rides as so I figured I'd give these Vibranators a try. They work pretty well and actually remove about 80% of the "frequency" that makes my hands ache. Pretty effective and I'm quite pleased with them.

Also went on a ride this weekend, passed by our local "canyon photographer" and got great shots of me and my Sporty 48!!!! Enjoy!!!!

Taller bars might help too.

Obviously it don't snow much at 310 , where is that?
We got 12-16" snow today.
Nice pics , looks like a great day to ride.
I used to run the Throttlemeister bar end weights and cruise control on my Buell , they worked very well.

I've heard good things about the Vibranators also.
Kinda thinking about a set for my '48 too.
Adding weight to the bars almost always at least helps somewhat.
Changes the "amplitude" of the shake , to a slower rate , more comfy.
Good looking scoot too.

Bike looks great! Good to see you wearing full gear like that on those corners.

Agreed. I was looking to get the Lone Industries 1 inch risers. I think 2 inches might be too much.

310 = SOCal (Los Angeles). That specific ride was in the Santa monica mountains. I looked into the throttlemeisters too, but wanted mine completely concealed. The vibranators completely slide into the bar and it doesn't even look like they're there. Clean install.
