vibration and anti vibration

[Theycallmecrash]

My CR v8brates annoyingly around the 8-9k rpms. I feel it in the handle bars, but also the pegs. Seems to be somewhat normal, but seems slightly excessive. Thoughts?

Ive also read about anti vibration bars or the Vibrinator whatcha thingy. Opinions? Do they work? Should I invest in some bar ends? Or should I expect more issues and the vibration is a sign of major issues? Ill blow the ****er up revving it up thinking about this

And oh9bolt is a dick, anyone agree?

I thought you like things that vibrate excessively?

[Theycallmecrash]

Normally yes, but not when there is a risk of it blowing up on my ass.

Ive got vibranator bar ends on my 9SX and they've made a world of difference. Seems like they vibrate a bit at lower rpms (2k or so) but once I get up to speed its silky smooth.

Awesome, guess ima have to invest in sum bar ends.
I went over and torqued every bolt I could today, changed the oil again and this time it came out really clear, so I ran it for 15 minutes one last time to flush it.

Hopefully my issues with this bike are behind me

cool, so what's left to be fixed on the rest of the inventory in the garage, 12R, tuber?

The 1125 needs the clutch slave next and last hopefully
the XBR is getting the CR headlight swap next, and the Crash repairs (tail section, front master, and handle bar and left controls)
The S1 needs some primary adjusts, plus registration/licensing
The Blast stock exhaust is rattling to pieces
and the Cyclone needs....everything, but still keeps on going.

And Im sure there are more bikes in my near future

Im glad you got my 1125 up and running good again

Road it about 150 miles today, with some other 1125 experienced riders including Al from American Sport bike. The vibration concern, is nothing, apparently normal. Bike handled great, ran smooth with Fresh Amsoil in it. I have to say this was the most fun ive had with it since getting it. I finally feel like its earned its place in my collection of Buells.
sorry Jesse I might just keep it. Also lets not get off subject, oh9bolt is an Asshole!

My 1125cr had enough vibration (worse on the throttle side) to make my hand numb on a hour 45-hour long ride. Put some bike masters anti vibration ends and its almost completely gone.
Definitely cheap enough to give em a try. I did have to slightly modify the clutch side because of the interior pipe dimension of the clubman bars, but all i did was cut the rubber down slightly.
