    If the vibration bothers you, do what I do: Ride faster. Then other things will get your attention and you'll forget all about the vibration.

      No issue with the Manic salamanders I have fitted..... Less than the originals.

            i just threw some BikeMaster superbike bars on the GS450E yesterday. i had no cable or brake line issues installing them. they feel great and after 50 miles my wrists are feeling fine. the way they sit it seems i get more leverage turning, and i can see better out of my stock mirrors

            they were $17 and i can't say the usual vibrations got any worse, but they may just transmit to my head to quickly...
