Throttle Rattle

All,
Ok...so Im picky - but does anyone else find the play between the throttle tube and boss annoying? We have shitty roads up this way, and the rattle excessive.
They're stock grips, etc - don't believe swapping them would make a difference?

Thanks,
Steve

Up & down or side to side? Side to side can be reduced easy enough. Up & down you might be stuck with. Mine has some up/down play, but I honestly don't notice when I'm riding.

You can loosen the control screws and slide the whole control away from the end of the bar and this sometimes will tighten it but if you get the grip to tight it won't return on it's own wich isn't a good thing being the throttle.

Thanks guys - its up/down movement. I typically keep a light grip on the throttle and cover the brake, so the vibration between the throttle and bar is annoying
