As far as I know... A gazebo reference tag tells your ROS URDF file what properties a link should have in gazebo. It defines the behavior of a link when it is spawned within the gazebo environment ONLY. What you put within a gazebo reference tag does not affect how your robot behaves for instance in RVIZ. Case in point... See below
<gazebo reference="front_left_wheel"> <mu1 value="200.0"/> <mu2 value="100.0"/> <kp value="1.0e+6"/> <kd value="1.0"/> <gravity value="true"/> <maxvel>0.0000001</maxvel> <mindepth>0.00001</mindepth> <material>Gazebo/Black</material> </gazebo>
This snippet reference says for the front_left_wheel link within the gazebo environment... Set values to blablabla... That link would then go on to behave with the set parameters WITHIN GAZEBO only.
