Handle bar vibrations.
Can anyone help.
I'm getting serious vibrations off the right hand bar on my K3 650S.  Has anyone else had this and what can I do about it?Any ideas? |

Has it always been like that or just started?
Have you got bar end weights in your bars. These can help damp it a bit. |

Ride until your hand is numb, have a quick hand shandy and it will feel like someone else......At least that's what I've been told...

V-twins are pretty vibey, but usually the problem is that people are holding the bars too tight. |

Some did say that if it developed it could be some balancing type thing...throttle bodies....are they on an F1...someone help me here...anyway needing balancing
 If its always been like it, they can be vibey. Mine always gave me numb hands after a bit however loosley I clung on. |

Yeah, after a good few thousand miles the throttle bodies can need balancing. It's not difficult, but you do need a vacumn gauge of some sort.
