Greetings, all!
About a month ago I sold my Rebel 250 and bought myself a '97 Savage. Since then I'm lovin' life! Torque is SUCH a beautiful thing!
In my quest to dampen the vibrations in my handlebars, I've been advised to either (1) fill the bars with lead shot or some other substance to act as a buffer; (2) install bar end weights; (3) replace the stock grips with cushier ones; or (4) replace the stock bars with drag bars.
Anyone swear by any of these solutions? If so, any detailed directions on how to do it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks a lot guys -- ride on!
