I had thought of spraying my handlebars full of that expanding spray
foam insulation to reduce vibes. Before I do it has anyone tried
anything like this or if not do y'all think it's a stupid idea. If
not I will carry on and report the results of my experiments.

my guess is that spray foam is too hard (brittle) and too lightweight
to do anything but prevent you from ever filling your bars with a
more likely candidate....
Sand, or lead shot or even painters caulk might be a better damper
