no hand tank slapper

OK. I am going to get flamed for this but here it goes. So let me start by saying yes I am a dumb ass.

When I ride with no hands I will be OK for a wile but then the bars start into the tank slapping bs.

This is on Smooth roads so I should be able to ride and steer with just my knee input. This isn't a big deal because I should not need to take my hands off the bars often but I don't like the fact that I can't trust that if I let go i don't know what will happen.
