Does anyone here have these, or have tried/riden with them?
How do you like them?
Do they work well to reduce any vibration?
Any negetive issues with them?, Bars slipping?, No effective vibe reduction? other?

let me here the Good, the Bad, the Ugly...

my dad has them on his 250r trike but his are the 1 1/8th fat clamps but they seem to be fine, i dont ride it as much as he does, but the seem like a good part to me, actually i wanna get a set for my ex so i can run fatbars

I dont have that set but i like my risers that are similar. if you can get a good deal on them they are def worth it imo. I think the 1 1/8 bar made more difference than mine but my adaptors arent the anti vibe setup so the anti ones should help even more. steve

Dammit, after a little more research, I find that those clamps will not work with a stock steering stem Or 7/8" bars, so I guess those are out for me.

what do you guys think of these as an alternative...

I have a stock stem, and 7/8" aftermarket handlebars.
do these inserts do much to reduce vibration?, or are they really just "Snake oil" ?

they look like they just slip in the ends of the bars but idk if they work or not.

Obviously, if you really want a true anti-vibe setup, you need to get an anti vibe steering stem / clamp combo. lol ;)

I agree with trailrider, you'll be money ahead, if your funds allow you to.
