Vibration reduction plate for Royal enfield | Installation & Review
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 дек 2024
- This review is post installation of carberry vibration reduction plate on my #royalenfield continental GT. So we are trying to find a fix for royal enfield vibrations within the engine in 2018 unlike handlebar vibration fix in 2017. This is a more technical solution for fixing vibrations and minimizing them between speeds of 60km to 90kmph which are crucial for continental GT.Carberry claims that the engine #vibrationreductionplate is designed in such a way that it supports and stabilizes the RH crankshaft.This vibration reduction plate is currently designed for the royal enfield's powered by UCE(Unit Construction Engine).
I will cover the important aspects of this vibration plate post installation on:
a. Handlebar vibrations post change of vibration reduction plate.
b. Idle start vibration post change.
c. Vibrations post 60kmph.
4. Vibrations on chassis post change.
The existing plate covers the cam wheel on the right side below the clutch housing. There are three cam wheels altogether. The existing plates arrangement causes tension on the crankshft resulting in vibrations at higher rotations. The vibration reduction plate of carberry is fitted after the gear that drives the cam wheels. There are visors to fit on cam wheels and also a bearing on the crankshaft which sits on the vibration reduction plate thus offering better support and less tension on crank shaft.
You can use this vibration reduction plate on all the existing UCE models of royal enfield named; Royal enfield standard, royal enfield classic, royal enfield thunderbird, royal enfield electra, royal enfield continental gt. This is applicable for 350cc, 500cc models.I am not sure about Himalayan's engine construction.
Claims by carberry in its official page is:
1. Stabilization of uneven distribution of mass around the axis.
2. No backlash between the pinion and cam wheel on any angle of rotation.
3. Vibration reduction of royal enfield UCE engines between speeds of 60-90 kmph.
4. Increasing the life of bearings.
5. Reducing the cam wheel wear and lower long term wear on the teeth.
Hope my video was useful for you in understanding the actual effects of the vibration reduction plate on the engine. This is an initial review which will follow by a detailed video.

Thanks Abhilash for the detailed review of vibration reduction plate. As we all were waiting for such review. You are the first vlogger to post a review!!! Congrats as well!!!
Thanks buddy. I saw a great improvement and thus thought I should share my views because a lot of them were confused whether this investment is worth. The vibrations are not eliminated but reduced to certain extent. More than vibrations , to me the smoothness was fantastic.
Thank you for sharing this awesome review about Carberry plate.. I had one feedback from one of the RUclipsr before, but it was just an answer of question I asked in description. I have already ordered this plate for my thunderbird and after watching your video I can be sure that thunderbird 350 will have almost no vibration compare to your beast, of course because of engine size.
I am not sure if the vibrations will vanish but there will be a noticeable difference. This was my experience. Do share your views once you have installed it. Happy to be of help.
Mukesh Jha did it resolve the vibration issue
Yes Mukesh to a substantial level.
How is it on thunderbird now?
Excellent and helpful video. Thanks from Australia.
Subscribed instantly!!, the way you explain, it's truly succinct and clean!!, keep it up!!..
Thanks buddy, appreciate your support
Nice review as usual. Thanks....(By the way, there was a disconnect in voice in a couple of places. It was like a disruption in audio).
I do not have a condenser mic, it is a default mic which captures less audio when afar. Will try to find some alternate next time., Was a good find buddy.
very nice and informative video and good message at the end . Hope carberry makes a rear disc and abs kit for royal enfield
Thanks buddy, nice idea that would be very useful.
Me too agree bro .. Have installed the same on my Thunderbird 350.. and it's working great...
Thanks Sabarish for the response. Happy to hear that it worked for you as well. Hope my video was useful.
SABARISH PILLAI what was your experience
Wonderful - The real difference is visible post 60 km/hr .. the vibrations has greatly reduced .. the vibrations which you receive at the handlebars are good ones and the rattling of the mirrors has also gone down.
@@amplifyadventure what about the milage? does it affect milage?
No sir
Thanks a lot, keep posting tips and DIY of continental 535 .
I still doubt it, how can they get rid of vibes without a counterbalancer shaft??
Also how did you measure the percentage reduction in vibration, what metric did you use?
They are not as effective as counterbalancers but do give you a room to relax. The percentage measurement isnt based on any scientific notation of measuring vibrations but is a guessestimation comparing the old against new.
Hi Bro, is there any engine side issues after fitting this plate?? any other issues due to this plate? please let me know, am using classic 500 and i need to fit the same.
Hi Abhilash ,
What about it's life, is it durable. Is there any impact over the engine.
No impact yet buddy, still using it and its the best as it were.
Are u still using the bike with this plate? If so, what is your long term experience?
Way to explained is really good.
Thanks Mahesh. Appreciate your support.
Hey, great review. The link for the product doesn't seem to work, can u please provide updated link. Thank you
Congrats on making such a good video!It was defenitely a very informative one...I own a tb500 and very confused about buying this...mine is 14k on odo. I'm a top speed lover though it vibrates it is very manageable till 110kmph.i would occasionally push my bike to 130-140 kmph on free highways.since carberry has mentioned 110 as the max speed. How is your bike behaving in higher speeds say 120-130??
not a significant difference buddy. You may hardly notice changes at higher speeds.
Thank dear for such information,Plz help me for changing the handlebar,which one will be suitable for this GT.
I would say go for a taller one , less wider. Go to a store and select one and try based on your height.
Hi.. I got it same for my gt too. It's really useful.. It reduced the vibration for surely 60%.. Before my side mirrors use to vibrate a lot.. Nw it's reduced a lot.. I can feel the difference..
Thanks buddy, happy to be of help. Do check the changes for a few more days and let me know.
Thanks Abhi. Indeed good review. Keep going.
Thanks Chris, appreciate your support.
Are those mirrors on your bike after market? If they are can you share me a link where i can buy. 😁
Very useful video. I think i will buy this plate and get it installed in my bike. 👏👏
Hi Phalgun, thank you for the comments. The mirrors are stock mirrors on the continental GT. You can get them from the spares section of the Royal enfield service center. Do let me know your response once you have installed the vibration reduction plate.
Abhilash Pillai Thanks for the info on the mirrors. I am planning to get the plate installed once i reach 9k during my next service. I just got my bike serviced at 6k. I will update you once done😁
Thanks buddy, safe driving.
Good vídeo Greetings from Colombia south America.
Thank you Carlos.
I see it almost 1 year now after you have installed cranberry plate . Hows it now . U had any extra jobs done because of that or any problem with the engine . I'm actually planning to install it in my gt
Good video Abhi! very informative :)
Thanks Ravi. Happy to know that you liked the video.
Mr. Abhilash Pillai, i have a 2002 Electra, the first model of Electra, with the right side gear and left side brake, will this plate suit my bullet???
Don't think so but you can try emailing the carberry, they may have tweaks for you . But at the moment its just for the UCE that were post 2011.
Abhilash Pillai oh ok, that means they don't have a plate for the RE's that actually had the "Vibrations", they have the plates for the RE's that have evolved over the years and there is substancial reduction in the vibrations in the bike directely from the factory itself...well i think i'll wait till somebody else comes out with a plate for my RE...👍👍👍
lets see, evolution has started...
I have tried in my bullet 500standard one UCE...but its doesnt works...unusual sound was coming from the engine..replaced back with original plate after using 10kms of run. Very much disppointed.
Don't know buddy, might be some issues with your installation or it works differently on 500 standard. Not sure, for me it is just smooth.
Is it same for all for royal Enfield bikes
Did u notice any oil seal breakage on long rides?
Only once since I purchased it and got the seal replaced.
Bro,I liked mirrors on bike,please tell where did I get the same one,please help I am searching for that mirrors,I am from malappuram, Kerala.l am staying in ernakulam for studying
These are stock mirrors of continental GT. You can get them from the spares division of the official royal enfield service center in Ernakulam.
Thanks bro
Welcome
I have changed the handle bar long time back. Installed Uprising fir comfort. But vibration remain the same. Please send me the link where I can bought this plate and the double seat like u.
Hi Shounak, Thank you for the comments. I got my seat from the official service center of Royal enfield. They have a spares division that supplies the parts.
The link to purchase the plate is in the description.
If you plan to change the handlebar, select the one that is bent downwards or upwards and slanting towards you. This is the best composition that takes less vibrations to your hands. Do purchase a handlebar that isn't hollow and is strong. Hollow handlebars may require a bad end weight. I have been getting comments on the handlebar for some time, so I will do a separate video detailing the selection criterion.
Abhilash Pillai I have changed handle bar and installed d himalayan handle bar. Yes I got the link for the plate. But did not get the same seat from Royal Enfield showroom.
You need to check with their spare division and ask them to order one for you. Himalayan handlebar for GT is not comfortable, it is very risky to ride with that handlebar, plus it does not dampen handlebar vibrations. Try using an upright handlebar.
Abhilash Pillai then which you suggest? And I'm also looking for alloy wheels for GT. Coul you please help me out? Without alloy it very risky to go for long for adventure..
May be I will do a video for you to understand better.
Abhilash bro ith evidunn medikaam?ethraya cost?
you can purchase it online from carberry motorcycles website. Search in google with carberry motorcycles and you can find that. They have listed the price and have option for you to purchase it.
@@AbhilashPillai-lifeatabhi brode number undo?
Where can i get the clipons for this handlebar?
Sorry buddy did not understand the question. Did you mean that you want to know where to purchase stock clipons.
Abhilash Pillai true. How did you change GT stock handle to this one? GT usually has different setup
I installed a clamp from hitchcocks and then installed custom handlebar. Please refer my earlier videos for more information on this installation.
Just 1 ques bro,can we use this in all the RE model?
Hi Dilip, this can be used in royal enfield UCE models.

So here are some thoughts for you:
a. The stock version has lot of vibrations beyond speeds of 80 and after 120 they are extreme. There are mod's available to ease this but still it is unsahikyable!
b. Overall the bike is very smooth to ride but at times it makes you feel that it is angry on you. Again the engine needs refinement.
c. The gear shifting is better than the other royal enfield's and riding is smooth. It has lots of low end torque that makes you really really happy.
d. With the stock arrangement, you can go as fast as 100 quickly within 4 seconds and you wont know that you are riding that fast.
e. Taking turns and cornering is better than other royal enfield but not as good as ktm or other motobikes. It is realy heavy for the stock arrangement.
f. You need to be atleast 5 feet 8 inches for you to feel confident in riding it.
g. It is a magnet, every person who sees it passing will start watching it like a wonder. It looks gorgeous.
Overall it is a marvel and you will love it each moment you ride. Maintenance is less than other royal enfields. I have completed 100,000 kilometers on the GT and I am happy with the motorcycle.
abilash bhai is contiental gt or duke 390 is better on feel
Depends on the riding preference. Duke is a very good bike but to me when riding it feels like I am riding some toy. Might be because it is designed to be weight less.
My bike is smooth from 60-75.. would this be a good one to change?? And my bike is just 5k KM old.
There is no issue in changing it at 5k kilometers but if you feel your bike is smooth, there exists no reason to change the plate with carberry.
Can you please share details on this handle bar? Any name/brand? Are these RF350 handle? Pl help
This is not RD 350 handlebar, RD is lot wider and heighted. This is more comfortable and apt to hold. You can adjust it to suit your needs.
Sir for your continental G T bick sparpartes available for Royal Enfield service center can I go for 2nd hand continental G T used around 55 kilometers your suggestion please.
try riding it for sometime and see if you like the style. Also get a good mechanic inspect its parts.
Abhilash Pillai thankyou sir.
Which handle bar it is n where I can buy it
It is a custom built handlebar , i purchased it from cochin
Boss good info, I would want to install one in my classic 350, where can I get in Chennai? Can u please advise?
You need to order it online. Please go through the description for the link.
Iam confusd btwn classic 500 stealth black and bullet 500.pls suggest
what are your preferences with riding?
@@AbhilashPillai-lifeatabhi hello abhilash ji,i bought classic 500,but the seat is not comfortable for long rides becoz of buttocks pain,can we change the seat .pls give ur valuable suggestions
any changes on mileage or performance after installing this ?
varun, i havent closely watched it. will let you know after monitoring it for few more weeks.
Abhilash Pillai please do it and put a video on it too. I will wait for the mileage result and then show interest in buying it.
Bai sarikum handle bar vibrations kuravundo...?
Yes, not permanently removed but there are changes.
Very nice review.. Great.
Thank you buddy, appreciate your support.
It is really good information, actually re is not working on engines, they just doing cosmetic changes, since 2009 they just done lot cosmetic change in re 350 classic but not a single reform in engine. RE you have legacy but to keep continue this you need to upgrade quality.
Yes buddy, hope RE #royalenfield will hear the views of its consumers and correct it.
Like they say- Why fix when it ain't broken? People are buying their bikes no matter what. Why would they spend on improving the engines? They would rather increase the profits.
22 ye jb koi problm aye tb lgana pdta h ya yuhi lga skte h? ?
Yeh bas vibration ko kuch had tak control mein rakhta hain. Agar aapko kabhi lagta hain ki vibration bahut jyada hain service ke baad bhi toh aap try kar sakte hain.
Ok thnku 22
how are the vibrations under 45kmph, before and after installing the plate?
Acceptable vibrations
@@AbhilashPillai-lifeatabhi thanks
I am not sure how this plate , reduces the vibration. Please share reason how it's reduces the vibration.
The plate is technically stated to stabilize the RH crankshaft.
In royal enfield UCE engine there are two bearings on the left, while there is one at the right side.The stock plate covers the bearing on the ride side which comes fitted below the housing of clutch. This causes pressure on the crankshaft and increases vibrations at higher rev.
According to #carberry the plate stabilizes the right-hand side of the crankshaft. The plate is fitted after the gear which drives the cam wheels. Also carberry provides an additional bearing installed on the end of the crankshaft, which sits on the vibration reduction plate offering better support. This is how it reduces vibrations.
Can u please suggest me in between thunderbird 350X and himalayan. Which would be better in a city riding
go for thunderbird 350x with additional accessories.
Abhilash Pillai thanks a lot bhai
Hi, i changed the plate and it worked really well for 400 kms, and then the vibrations returned to normal how they were before!
I dont know what should i do!
Did you install it properly I never had such issues. Try getting it done through a better mechanic.
can you please tell me how did you install the biltwell grips my mechanic said it won't fit the gt because it's missing a part in the throttle to install biltwell grips
Replied to the earlier video, They used the portion of my previous stock grip and mounting bitwell throuxton on top.
Hello sir, which handle bar use in ur bike and his price and rear view mirror model with price also tell me.bye
it costed me 650 rupees, mirror was the stock mirror that I got from Royal enfield.
Bro is there any problem if I change my stock silencer to Moto torque or red rooster performance silencer before the first service
It is better you get all service completed first and then change your air filter and tune the carburetor to suit that new silencer.
Bhai mere pass very new bullet hai but woh handle chod ne par right side ko jati hai.
There could be several reasons: 1. Ask mechanic to check if tyres are properly aligned with the rims. It happens sometimes that it is fitted wrongly. 2. Check coneset
Abhilash Pillai thanks and i subscribed
Thanks buddy
Bro!
Do u know anybody who fitted this plate in a classic 350?
What was their review?
I am interested to get one!
I am living in trivandrum ... Will i get it in a week? 😉😄
I saw some classic owners reporting positively in the facebook group where I posted the review.
You should get in a week.
Thanks brother🤩
Looking forward to buy it!
Do let me know your feedback once you have installed it.
Abhilash Pillai ofcourse!
could u plz tell me how it affect the milage?
App ko ab mile ya plate logo na kab ki use ker k vedio b upload ker di.
good buddy! I never want to be the first one to upload the video. I want to be the one who can be of use to some who haven't noticed that this information is useful. Appreciate your comments.
Bhai please provide a link to buy it
Awesome video Bhai 😎😘😘😘
Thanks buddy. I will add the link in the description.
I have a 350 standard 1985 old model do you think it will fit on old model as well
No buddy, this is only for the UCE supported models.
Its suitable in thunderbbird 500?
Yes buddy
Does the thump of engine change after using it?
I do not notice much of a change in the thump, for me it is the same.

Vibrations are a part of Royal Enfield that is the character of the bike you can’t take away that aspect from the bike. It cannot be compared to any other bike and is proudly MADE IN INDIA also it’s in a class of its own.
Thanks buddy for your comments, I am happy to hear your views on the Royal enfield and appreciate your love for the motorcycle. However, everyone loves to enjoy riding and vibrations though expected from an old school motorcycle and that too single clinder Thumper; cant be tolerated beyond a limit. The character of RE is not its vibrations but the comfort and the safe ride you have on it.
Will this work on any Enfield?
This will work on any Enfield with UCE, ie. Manufactured after 2011
Can you add a video to reduce heat in intercepter 650
is this plate use in 500 Standard
Hi Abhilash,
Ordered in link given immediately after watching video. Got reciept but can we get to track the shipment? 1 week is okay to wait but it gets tensed when crosses 10days and still nothing.
Is instamojo reputed ? Just asking suggestions.
They will send you the tracking id. You may need to be a bit patient. Try sending an email to followup.
thanks for the reply, I will follow up and will wait for another week.
Okey, do let me know your feedback post installation.
Call jaspreet singh for your concern i got mine within 6 days at my door steps
How has been your experience?
bro your concept is amezing but your audio quality is week plz work on it and keep it up bro
thanks Harsh, sure will work on the audio quality.
Hi Abhilash, I am a owner of continental GT from kannur, I tried to get new tyres for my bike but difficult to find stock tyres sizes, if you know any dealer who can offer stock tyre sizes please share the details, thanks
The back tyre size is very difficult to find; You may find different options for the front tyre. I used tolino tyres zapper style.
Bro if i order it ..how much time it will take to come..also is it coming from india or any other country..total how much you paid for it
I got it in a weeks time after booking, costed 3k rupees. They ship it from India (Bhilai) or durg.
Have you removed old dowels ?
yes, they were removed before the plate was fixed.

nice handlebar bro , from were cwn i get it n for how much.
got this custom built from a local shop.
Can i use it for my classic 350 .
On all Unit Construction Engines, so yes sir you can use it if it is not the old make.
can it be installed on thunderbird 350
yes sir, if it is UCE
Abhilash Pillai uce..?
UCE means 'Unit Contruction Engines'. In UCE, the engine and gearbox components share a single casing. All royal enfields post 2011 have UCE's.
Can it fit for classic 350
If yes then let me know
yes buddy, if you are riding a 350 with UCE then it will work.
Can this be used on Classic 500
After 2011, all the Royal enfield bikes were converted to Unit Construction Engines. If your motorcycle is manufactured after this year then it is an UCE make and of course the plate will work for you.
Would it fit to desert storm?
Yes sir.
Thunderbird ki mill jaye gi
If it is a UCE engine, you are good to go. Fit ho jayegi
Hello sir,sir I wanna know ur bike handle which bile
This is a custom made handlebar not specific to a bike. The handlebar slides upward and tilting towards the rider for comfortable ride and better grip during cornering.
Why re lovers does not use the full face helmet ,which is more safe?
I have a full face helmet which I ride often. This is for short rides and city commuting,
Very informative.....👍 UK :)
Thank you , appreciate your support.
Which type of handlebar it is? Can I use it for my classic 350.. pls suggest
It is a custom built brat style handlebar. You may have to use a different clamp for this handlebar.
Abhilash Pillai is this available in Mumbai?
Not sure buddy, you will have to check it at local dealers.
can it be used in avenger 220 too??
I dont think it will be suitable for avenger 220. Are you getting extreme vibrations in Avenger, I thought it was a comfortable touring motorcycle.
it was comfortable, but recently i m getting lots of vibrations post 60 kmph. i complained several times to service center, each time they say, its fine, there is very less vibrations and its normal for old bike. it has covered about 36000 km till now. above 70 its pain in ass to sit.
oops! that's sad to hear. Before you get inside the engine, Try to check the front forks and the cone set for alignment. Try changing your engine oil if you doubt maintenance could be an issue. If still the issue persists, contact a good mechanic and get the engine checked. Service centers wont support engine faults. If it is within warranty, ask them to correct or replace.
hello Abhilash Royal Enfield Interceptor 650cc also have vibration !! why this famous company is not able to rectify this problem!! even Bajaj Avenger Cruise 220 is smooth, only problem is material quality is very bad.
Sankarankutty Raju Where did u get a chance to drive 650cc Interceptor..??
Interceptor isn't out for our testing. Hope it will have less vibrations being a parallel twin
Abhilash Pillai , Ok thanks
can it be used for avenger
no Raghu, this is only for Royal enfield.
You nailed full image of cafe racer
Nice informative review :) Just tell your videographer to use tripods and focus properly.. its like videographer still having vibration in his hands :P
ha ha... that was a good one. Thanks for the comments buddy.
Why can't RE do it??
seems they are busy making selling figures than focusing on their customers. Good that someone figured it out.

I have fitted this plate on my Thunderbird 350 and it has been a month. I felt some vibration reduction in the handle bar but My foot pegs are vibrating more. Is there a specific reason to this??
I think the vibration reduction plate isolates the vibrations from a certain section of the motorcycle. I have seen that there are vibrations in the mid section of the motorcycle.
It work on classic 350 gunmetal Gary
yes buddy
