Vibranator bar ends on 2013 or 2014 FJR?

[DHS1981]

Has anyone put Vibranator vibe dampening bar ends on a 2013 or 2014 FJR? I have a set that I haven't tried to put on yet because I'm unsure if the installation will mess up the electronic cruise/ride-by-wire throttle stuff on the Gen III. You have to extract the stock inserts that the OEM bar ends screw into in order to install the Vibranators.

I like to know too. I installed a set of HVMP heavy bar ends but they did not help.

I just installed the bar weights from Manic Salamander and have/had no issues. Installed in about 10 minutes. There are no electronics in the end of handlebars. Just make sure you put enough spacers to keep the bar weights from touching the end of the grip. Obviously. BTW - they work and look nice. I have a 2013 and went with the stainless.

I have the Vibranators on my 14ES and had them on my 07 s well. In addition to the Vibranators, I have the Grip Buddies. I did not find the stock bars very buzzy but this set up eliminated what was there.

Ya, good luck with that. Roll video.

Seriously Bungi? Screw that! I didn't have to drill anything out for the set I got from Manic Salamander. They are each 12.5 oz.

How did you install the vibranators? How did you remove the chunks inside the handlebars?

The Vibranators come with an extraction tool. It is very easy. Instructions are included. If you go with them make sure you check them periodically to ensure they are tight.
