The vibrations from the bars are pretty bad after an hour of riding.As far as vibrations go:Older Yamahas have an internal vibration dampener/bar weight. I've seen sets going for $10 on eBay. It should help with the vibrations and still let your run bar-end mirrors.It's just a weighted tube with some o-rings on it. But it works great.

Lost1888 Posted May 3, 2011 Report Share Posted May 3, 2011 I couldn't be happier with my CRG's. One of the best things I did to my bike. Over time you get accustomed to the mirrors and never think about looking down or how small things are behind you. Vibrations have never been an issue even with my twin.This is where I bought mine 3 years ago.http://www.solomotoparts.com/home.php?cat=455&sort=title&sort_direction=0&&sort=&sort_direction=0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gump Posted May 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2011 Cool. Vibrations: on my Honda 599 I'm just hoping something changes. Does the filling the bars full of bb's work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gump Posted May 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2011 Lol.. I hate sand. Thing is I don't remember vibrations the first year or two I had it. Maybe it's tires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gump Posted May 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2011 The two tabs you see at the end with the thread hole are worthless to try and pull together and pull. The last pic shows the little tit that is only on one side of the thing even though there are two holes in the bar end. I used a socket big enough that it almost went over the bar end but still cleared one tab. Then put the bolt thru a washer, thru the socket then threaded it into the bar end and began screwing it in. It came out about 1/4" and stopped. The tab side with no tit came out with the bar end weight but the other side stayed in. The the bar end weight started spinning in the bar so I stuck visegrips on the socket and pounded on the visegrips until the hole thing popped out.

Gump Posted May 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 (edited) I think they look a little goofy but it will beat seeing my shoulders. I had to take the bar off to get the throttle tube off. There are two little tabs on the bar end weights. It must of been a fluke on the left side to only have one. I used a dremel to grind out the little tits in the bar holes and then bent those little tabs in so the whole thing would pull out a bit then vise gripped the socket and pounded the crap out of it. INstall is easy. Edited May 15, 2011 by Gump Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gump Posted June 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 Review after riding quite a bit. I love them. You have to get used to looking down to check behind you but your forward point of view is less obstructed and the wide angle takes a while to get use to but basically I should have done it a long time ago. It didn't change the vibrations in the handle though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
