Vibration!
93KX5Rider:
So i've been riding a lot the past couple of days but I can't ride too long at once with out my hands getting really really soar from all the vibration. My brother said he could feel the ground shaking when he stood next to me on my kx5 :) So I was wondering what I could do to dampen the vibration or what others have done to fix it. a good set of handle bars? good grips? good gloves? Let me know please! Thanks guys.

Having the crank balanced will help out alot. If you go to the Falicon website,they claim no 2stroke dirt have their cranks balance from the factory its in their Q&A section. I had mine done by Crankshaft Dynamics and my brother had his done by Crankworks they both do great work
93KX5Rider:
Yeah, I'm not sending my motor off just to try and get less vibration in my handle bars. Thanks anyways.

Then you may want to look into the Fasst vibration dampening bars good stuff , but If you would want to send out the crank I would pickup a spare on ebay and send it out then replace it when you get it back
93KX5Rider:
hmmmm I'll definitely take a look at those fasst bars. And if the vibration is still really bothering me then that is something I may do in the future. Thanks dude !
