I agree.For years I ran the Renthal light grey full diamond grips because I like the feel of the diamond.I recently switched to the Scott MX-SX 2's....they're a full diamond,and much thicker than the Renthals,thus easing the "grip" needed to hang on.

On my FJ 1200 they have steel bar ends, vibranator is a company that sells a screw in bar end that is reducng bar vibrations. They do very nice work and they work well too.
On my KXs I just fill the bars with rubberized silicon in a tube, let dry before you put back together (it will expand). It's a cheap bar snake and alot easier to install.
And loosend my grip used larger grips for my big hands. Helped alot. The carpel tunnel oper was the best thing I did. No problems any more.
