| | I just purchased a 2007 Shadow Spirit VT750C2 and I am getting a terrible vibration through the foot pegs during acceleration and while cruising above 60mph. My feet go numb after about 20 miles of riding. I am also getting quite a bit of vibration through the handle bars which is having the same affect on my throttle hand. Does anyone have any suggestions. |

| short of asking the service department if this is normal or needs fixing if possible, I'd try putting on new bar grips with a thicker, gel type material, and new footpegs with a rubber surface on top, both to help absorb some vibration.

| Thank you for the reply. I put a set of iso foot pegs on it and that took care of the problem. I am surprised that Honda puts the stock "Hollow" foot pegs on those bikes. With the engine and pegs mounted solid to the frame, the vibration is unbearable.
I really like the bike but If I was a first time "New" rider, I don't believe that I would buy another Honda. |

| glad you found the fix, now hopefully the rest of your time with that bike will be more typical Honda quality.
