I installed 8in risers with a 3in tracker/moto bar. I posted in a thread but wondering if some of you folks might have an answer. I replaced 12in T-bars with this setup and the vibration/handlebar shake is unreal...primarily on the left side. I've run the gamet of checking motor mounts, torque specs, and bar adjustment. This seems odd given the T-bars didn't really do this and I've found very little in regards to folks describing this who run a similar setup of tall riser - tracker/moto/ dragtype bar. Anyone have a suggestion? I bought some lead rods I'm going to slam in the bar ends to add weight and see if that helps.
With the crappy weather we have had this weekend, I stayed indoors and looked at stuff online WAY to much! I now have a Harley premium oil cooler kit, and a PCS4C reuseable oil filter headed my way.
I ordered a external breather kit from DK Customs, Kuryakyn extended breather bolts from Amazon, and the Rushmore breather tubes from Harley. Everything came in except the Rushmore breather tubes, figures. Anyway, I installed the kit today without the breather tubes. Came out fine.
Not snowing today and roads were dry so got to try out my new Rinehart mufflers. Finally found the sound I was looking for............New in box e-bay special........$86.00 + $20.00 shipping, not bad.

I didn't like the vibration on the standard mini-apes on my 2011 SB, so I bough some Ricor Vibranators (yeah, really suss-sounding name, and they look kind of kinky too )
They worked very well in my application. The theory is that, unlike 'static' bar end weights, the shiny bits are rubber mounted (the black bits are rubber), and can vibrate inside the bar like a pendulum, counterbalancing out the vibe from the bar itself.
I couldn't say if they would work better than lead bar though. And they are seriously-overpriced. I think next time I'd make them up using threaded rod, rubber hose, lock nuts and a stack of washers!
