[QUOTE="Fairlaner, post: 1174202, member: 3816"] i don't feel the vibration in the hands, i used to feel it a lot in the seat but i saw a treat on the Kawi board where some guy put 1/8th inch rubber pads under where the tank mounts to the frame and he said it made a big difference. The problem there is because the seat kinda locks under the tank mount and transfers the vibration from the frame to the mount and then on to the seat. I went one better and use 1/4 inch rubber pads under the tank mount and the same pads between the seat and the mount.....I gotta say it made a huge difference and now i actually like riding it. I do plan on selling it real soon (anyone?)and getting a BMW S1000R........YE HA. R [/QUOTE]
