What Bar Ends
« on: 19 January 2014, 01:55:24 pm »
Anyone have any suggestions of what bar ends to fit on rental bars? Would like something with a bit of weight, not the usual alloy stuff ?  :)

Photo of the Oberon Stainless Steel Heavy bar end.  I agree these are the best.  :b   They worked for me.

I paid a local machine shop £10 to tap out the Renthals to take the OEM bar ends. The aftermarket bar ends I got were much lighter and not as good at reducing vibrations.

Drilled & tapped my shortened Renthals, then put on cheap alloy bar ends. What vibration? Not a believer in weights, the ones under the rear footrests, & the one behind the left heel guard are equally pointless.
