vibrations in handlebars

[nlheikki]

Does anybody have a noticeably increase in vibrations through their handlebars in the lower revs (2000-4000 RPM) going through 1st and 2nd gear?

I haven't noticed it in any other gear or higher RPM.

Thanks,
Nick

Has it just started or has it always been there?

All bikes have different resonant frequencies and the FZ6 is no exception.

It's always been there. I just wanted to see if anybody else has had the same issue/qwirk with their bike.

I just picked up my 2007 FZ6, and after riding at highway speed for 45 minutes (with sufficiently padded gloves), my hands were quite numb. My feet were also a little numb from the vibration, but less noticably.

you may want to try some different bar ends. Heavy barends will help with vibrations in the handlebars.
