Thank you for your postFrom the write up on the site these are simply bar end protectors, they don't do anything the OEM ones don't?
According to the website:
Helping to protect expensive levers and clip ons from damage in the event of a drop, crash or slide.
Easy to install they simply screw-in-place of the OE bar ends taking only seconds.
From this I believe these are purely an aesthetic upgrade? if you like to look of them, mission accomplished!
If you are looking to reduce vibrations I can't see these would make any difference? As they seem to screw into the existing weights?
Any noticeable effect on handling? I'm trying to decide between two - aluminum Vs stainless steel. The latter is obviously markedly heavier.Fitted the new bar ends today and the vibration is less.
Wholly recommended 👍
I didn't notice any issues whatsoeverAny noticeable effect on handling? I'm trying to decide between two - aluminum Vs stainless steel. The latter is obviously markedly heavier.
Comparing the stock bar ends (CB650R) which I weighed at approximately 290g each end (including inner bars), the aluminum will come in at 298g each end, so a slight increase - or the stainless at 450g each end.
