Ditto that - sure wish I could get that in a higher quality glove though.  
Also the Dr. Scholls thin gel sole inserts in your boot really help the
feet.

I've found most all bikes I've ever ridden have a buzz somewhere in the
2500 - 4500 rpm range that lasts for about 200 rpm or so.  Someone once
told me that it's the bike's harmonic vibration point, not sure if it's
real or if it's bs.  And ditto the carb or throttle body sync and tuning
up helping smooth things.  Assume you've checked the chain too.
