REDUCE ENGINE VIBRATIONS 30% AT HANDLEBAR HIMALAYAN 450

[@Sirish62mukul]

I noticed one thing with the 450 that in ECO mode there is less vibration in 1-4k rpm.. I mainly use it during city rides!

[@rohanjoseph5630]

+1 on that - the engine is much less viby, good for city

[@aakashsandhu2165]

100 percent agreed. I own it and I feel the performance mod definitely has a lot of thrashy vibes and Eco mod helps that problem by making the throttle response linear.

[@stevemcmullen4100]

Thanks for the review. A little tip to remove and install grips ,use a compressed air duster ,push it under the grip, and apply a short shot of air.The grip will come straight off.

[@markshieldwarjri3397]

@ontwowheelsben on 2:00 minute you said something about bars, may i know where to get a pair of those...

[@akshay.manikandan.malayil]

Which bike bar end is used ktm adv or other ktm bikes

[@akshay.manikandan.malayil]

Which bar end weight is used on this handle bar?

[@sarathsekar]

Okey, now the chai on the tank got me ben.. ❤

[@sandipp4590]

Is it Barkbuster or other brand? Links point to other brand

[@khoro-do2lb]

Hi Ben, I am looking to purchase this. Has this helped with damping buzz and vibrations after your usage since installation? Would like to hear your thoughts!

[@ONTWOWHEELSBEN]

Yes about 30% .

[@aakashsandhu2165]

Can a full header pipe like the AEW or a half Catcon pipe from speedmonks or Way2speed help the vibrations from this engine especially just above 4-5k RPM??

[@ONTWOWHEELSBEN]

@@aakashsandhu2165 no

[@yellownev]

The Uk motorway speed is right into the sweet spot for max vibrations … renders the mirrors useless and makes the benefit of the extra cruising speed redundant sadly. Always value your content. Ride safe.

[@ONTWOWHEELSBEN]

[@flyingkiwi215]

Could try changing the rear sprocket.

[@astonjondalmeida4528]

I can see you have added karega shocker gaurd.. have you made a video on that??

[@ONTWOWHEELSBEN]

Yet to

[@raynesispearl2650]

Do u think we can swap the handlebar of 450 with the 411's?

[@ONTWOWHEELSBEN]

Not without spacers ( adapters )

[@sohamlagad5660]

where can i get the bar end weights tho??

[@ananthakrishnanks4389]

can I use this on new j series bullet 350??

[@ONTWOWHEELSBEN]

absolutely.

[@ananthakrishnanks4389]

@@ONTWOWHEELSBENthank you ❤

[@rohanjoseph5630]

What about grip puppies ?

[@khoro-do2lb]

They are good. Have used them for the last 15K kms on my Duke. They have reduced buzz by a good bit. Only concern with them was the material they are made of. Easily gets soaked and dirty and then gets a little hard. Also, mine seems to be tearing a bit after only a year of usage. I would want to try Spidergrips next.

[@ONTWOWHEELSBEN]

Never if you intend to ever go off road .

[@avid_biker]

Handlebar vibrations are not as much of an issue for me as much as those coming from the footpegs esp at 5500rpm. Any solutions for that?

[@ONTWOWHEELSBEN]

Better silicone dampeners to be used in the foot peg brackets . Will experiment soon and make a video

[@HSsharma37]

Brother, Grip puppies or these?

[@rkavan]

Bro grip puppies will reduce vibration but u cannot use it with gloves 😢

[@HSsharma37]

thanks for useful feedback brother, but why so?... perticular issue with grip puppies only?

[@banditxisto]

@@HSsharma37 Off course you can use it with gloves, in most countries in europe we use always gloves for safety and grip puppies are very popular

​@@ONTWOWHEELSBENoohh....well that's what I do most if the time, will be looking forward for your feedback of these bark Busters, tbhi purchase karunga😅....thanks brother.. cheers and keep riding

[@navneeth6644]

Brother Is there any planning to install exhaust? Waiting for that💀

[@ONTWOWHEELSBEN]

Soon 😁

[@vinayparangi6079]

Does this work on OG Himalayan?

[@ONTWOWHEELSBEN]

Yes

[@Xtrememoto123]

Sir, can u make video for handbar ,, My handle bar twist again n again during off-road.

[@ONTWOWHEELSBEN]

Nothing can be done about it . Increase the torque on the bolts holding the bar clamps . Go 90-100 NM .

[@qu_0001]

Does this fit 411?

[@ONTWOWHEELSBEN]

Yes

[@shubhmishra3015]

How do you quantify vibrations?

[@ONTWOWHEELSBEN]

30% reduction in FELT ( subjective ) vibrations . That’s the point of the swap . It’s always either the scientific way or by feel ( experience matters )

[@chiefnerd5578]

Can this be used for Himalayan 411?

[@ONTWOWHEELSBEN]

Yes

[@alexropmay8446]

can this be used in 411 (2020 model ) !!!

[@ONTWOWHEELSBEN]

Yes

[@jimmydickson8854]

Thanks for the tips mate jimmy Aust

[@ONTWOWHEELSBEN]

Glad that it helped

[@ADVENTURETRAVEL3111]

Use barkbusters handguards also

[@ONTWOWHEELSBEN]

Soon

[@akhilcoolb4u]

does adding a high density rubber pad in between the handle bar mounts and handle bar risers, reduce the vibrations on handle ?

[@ONTWOWHEELSBEN]

Elastomer . Hard to get in India

[@Ram-lu1wn]

What's one mans buzz is another mans vibration and vice versa. Very subjective.

[@ugendar]

Been using Barkbuster grips on my Himalayan 411. Better than stock grips and comfort

[@qu_0001]

It fits nicely or needs to chop down the right plastic below the grip?

[@ugendar]

@@qu_0001 no need to chop. Fits correctly.

[@ananthakrishnanks4389]

Does it last?

[@ugendar]

@@ananthakrishnanks4389 Yes. depends on how you use

[@ananthakrishnanks4389]

@@ugendar for normal commuters will it last like normal grips since it is of rubber material

[@thomaskamei4268]

nice!

[@roshan9828]

30 percent Kam vibration Bhai mere kuch bhi 😂

[@HSsharma37]

Pahle istemal kare, fir vishwas kare 😅

[@ajojoseph6052]

This is not reducing vibrations, just making you feel less of it. A pair of grip puppies/buddies will do the same. And to make a claim of 30% less is not based on verifiable data. Title is misleading.

[@ONTWOWHEELSBEN]

REDUCING FELT vibrations is the claim . Also grip puppies are not grips suited for Indian hand measurements. The title says AT THE HANDLEBAR. Not misleading.

[@disisashish]

@@ONTWOWHEELSBEN rightly said bro.
