Presuming you have no engine difficulties, the single most important thing you can do to curb vibration is set up your carbs properly.

I have had a seasoned mechanic tell me that my bike needed bottom end work, and another tell me to replace the clutch basket, all because the carbs were well away from the settings where they should have been.

You will not likely get rid of all of the vibration, but you can greatly reduce it.

I just installed an old style of hand grip....it's a two piece thing...left over from the 70's...had to put in a special order. Not expensive, though...$10.

Re: Vibration

My 750E vibrated so badly when I first rode it that my hands lost all feeling in 20 minutes. After synchronizing the carb vacuums, the vibration decreased by about 95%.
