I filled my Rizoma bars up with lead shot. It works, easy, can be messy.

Not light weight.

Kirb, be careful if your shot is loose in the bars.
I have heard of them making their way into switches and bearings.

I put ~4 oz. in each bar inside 10 mil ziplock bags on Loretta.
Kills ALL the buzz, same principle as a "dead-blow" hammer.
At first I used a pair of generic aluminum sport-bike bar-ends.
Now I run a set I made in my garage on my bench lathe that are the same diameter as the bars instead of the grips.
