So in response to the initial reason for starting this thread...

Again thanks to everyones comments and input.

It really was a fairly simple fix. I am still puzzled that OTR would not provide this solution with the bash plate as shipped.

I simple purchased some tiny rubber washers/ O-rings (refer pic attached). I think it cost me about $3 for 16 of them (just in case). Also purchased a cheap sheet of stick on rubber (also in the picture attached) from clark rubber.

In a nutshell just place the rubber between plate and the frame (the inside of the bash plate) and whoooola. I'd say it reduced vibration noise by about 80-90%. You can still notice it slightly at idle, but its hardly an issue. Before I could here it over the exhaust while revving pretty hard!
