If you are looking for a smoother ride, and not performance...as I inferred from your post....get OEM or Boge struts/shocks. The 850R has a sporty suspension, so it's pretty stiff....but great for handling.

Vibrations may also be caused by your wheel bearings or motor mounts.

As for your rotors, when you installed them, did you use compatibile pads, and did you temper them correctly? Maybe get them turned.
