Does anybody else have trouble with hand-numbing bar buzz, especially the
throttle side, around 4-4,500 rpm?  Any suggestions?  I was going to put
some liquid Bar Snake in there, but found the bar was solid.

Hey Nancy,

I went through this not too long ago.  On rides of only 100 miles or so, I
would find that my right foot would fall asleep from the vibration, and my
hands felt like I'd been using a chainsaw.

It could be that your throttle bodies need sync'ing, however in my case it
was due to a loose mounting brackets for the panniers.  Go over your bike
looking for loose stuff and tighten as needed; this is the easy/cheap thing
that I'd try first.  Sync'ing the throttle bodies is more difficult and/or
expensive.
