Vibration through handlebars

I suffer with HAVS so really feel any vibration. As above PHDS with green elastomer(softest), fill the bars with silicone, Pro taper pillow grips and don’t grip too tight. Fresh tampon at the start of a race helps considerably😂😂😬.
 
Pillow grips on lock on grips @Nokkaz ? ...... or did you carve up some lock on's and glue on some pillow tops? Cheers 👍🏻
For the TPI I just bought a new throttle tube, lhs goes straight on the bar as normal. 350 had heated grips fitted so I cut off the grip carefully and fitted pillows. These are lock on so I imagine the previous owner cut the original grips off.
 
Thanks for the replies guys……I’ll defo look into the pillow grips,any particular model to get??
ship….have you got any more install info/pics for the pvc pipe method on the bars? I’m Gona try that 1st, what pipe did you use, flexible cleaning conduit? I’ll then look into the phds mounts if needed💪 Hopefully not 👌
Just google Pro Taper Pillow grips, as below.

Sometimes the bars have plastic bungs in, make sure there is a clear path through before you start.
