Oberon ones are way better than standard suzuki ones.
www.oem-uk.com Mine have hit the ground a few times, but as they are stainless steel, i just polish them up again.

Hiya, you don't say what model bike you've got.
I've got a curvy, and have fitted some nice stainless steel bar ends. Busters 20quid. However, because of the neccesity of having to remove them to bring the bike indoors, narrow door  , I occasionally go out without refitting them. Makes no difference at all, vibration wise.

Two suggestions that might help, I see by your sig you've got a naked?
First fill the bars with sand, this will help, then try to get hold of a set of Suzuki GSXF bar ends, they have a steel sleave with a lead core although slightly smaller than standard, are much heavier. Cheers Mark.
