dampeners do work...
Not a huge difference, but they do help

My only experience with them is with I4.
so, I don't know how much difference it will make on a twin

I have already bought a set of Vibranators and put them on my 1999 XL883. I generally run on the highway at about 80 to 90 MPH all the time and everybody knows how much a little XL883 vibrates at those speeds. I did notice a difference and it did help a bit. It does NOT stop a 100% of the vibrations and it does not claim to. I am happy with the results. I would and do plan on buying another set for my older 1977 Harley XLCR Café Racer. If I can fit them on one of my 1975 850 Norton Commando motorcycles, then I will buy another set and try it out on that bike too! I hope that this information helps you out. Good luck and ride safe out there!
