bar ends
« on: 02 June 2017, 01:07:13 pm »
Hi guys


Recently put some Renthal 758's on my fzs600 and brought some tiny Oxford bar ends to make sure they didn't stick out to much.


Worked for about a month but sadly yesterday one of them fell out whilst riding and I didn't notice it  :rolleyes


So now I need some new bar ends that will fit Renthal 758's, looking for some that have a better securing to the handlebars than the Oxford one's, was wondering if there was any handlebar guards that fit the Renthal 758's?


Hope you guys can help me out.


Cheers :)

Hello mate


R&G do bar ends that fit. The have a different fitting but are long.


I'm sure Renthal will have an option too.

Do you know how exactly the R&G one's fit on? if they are anything like the Oxford one's they won't last

I found that none of the R&G ones etc had any weight in them.

I bought a pair of bar end weights from a Suzuki hayabusa, some long bolts and some wall fixing metal rawlplugs. Same as this video:



Worked perfectly and never moved since the day I fitted them  8)

It wouldn't be fun if it was easy, I just wish it wasn't this much fun.
