[QUOTE="boogahboogah, post: 646522, member: 231"] When my '05 was new, the bar vibes were fairly strong. Vibes got weaker as the bike got broken in, now, at 45k, there's very little bar vibration left. I put on risers, bar end weights, and BMW grips back in '05. Still happy with that layout. Every now & then I have to remind myself to loosen the 'death grip'. I also use a vista cruise so I can take my hands off the throttle from time to time, but I had to do that with my previous bike too (cruiser). I found the stock seat totally unacceptable for anything longer than a tank. Did research on this & other forums, bought a Russell in '06. Love it. Best purchase I've ever made. I know, I know, it's alot of money. But my buns thank me every vacation ride (2 weeks this year). FWIW, your mileage may vary, etc etc. Good luck ! [/QUOTE]
