Default Vibranator fitment?

NO, NOT THAT!!! The kind that fits in your handlebars...umm, just look here..

Just curious if anybody has used them and if they work on late model bikes? I sent them an email a little bit ago, but it hasn't been long enough to expect a reply.

They're just bar-end weights. Sporr bikers have used them for years to help cut down the high frequency buzz in the handlebars. On a current Harley touring, if you have vibration in the bars (other than shake at idle), then you have other problems.

Also I do not believe they will work on the Throttle by Wire bikes since the sensor goes inside the bar on the right side.

When I switch my bar to HD's pullback, I used "BarSnake", the pour in type as I ran all wiring inside the handlebar. Can't tell if it make a difference.

Kinda regretted it, cause now I can't add Heat Demon heated grips

Thanx for the replies. My hands are sensitive to handlebar vibrations..changed grips 3 times, bars twice, etc. I've had carpal tunnel surgery on one hand years ago and I was looking for an easy fix.

BTW, using the heated hand grips even in warm weather helps noticeably.

What about one of the aftermarket motor mount systems?
