    Again,
    Thank you for your response.
    You were correct I was gripping too tightly on the handle bars. After another ride today when I was focused it felt way better almost nothing.
    Thank you

    Lot of times I have 2 fingers over the levers. But I may adjust them like you said.

    a set of foamies grips are awesome insurance against the vibes, along with some good bar end weights, and making sure they're good and tight, dampening the bars properly ect.

    I honestly didn't think I'd give a single damn about the foamies when I bought my VFR and they were already installed. after my 3rd 500+ mile day in a row on my way to TX from Ohio, I really figured out what I did and didn't like, and the foamies are feckin' awesome.
