I recently installed factory heated grips, which came with a new handlebar. Ever since I swapped the bar, I have been getting a high frequency vibration in the left grip. My commute is only like 8 miles, and my hand was getting numb. It seems worst in the 3-4000 RPM range. Smooths out s revs get higher. (haven't had it higher than 7)

I have sync'ed the throttle bodies already in attempt to get rid of the vibration. Chassis is smooth when I pull in the clutch. I have not replaced the Plugs yet...they are on order. Valve clearances have been checked.

I removed the handlebar stiffeners (washers that were compressing the rubbers) hoping that would help. No better. The bar end weights are stock.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks,
Joe
