Bar end weights for an N - SV650.org

Mark_h · 07-09-14, 04:23 PM

At some point today I managed to loose a bar end weight. I suspect it's in a carpark in Bournemouth but I'm not going all the way back to look for it. Anyhow I need to get some new ones now. Problem is the N, unlike the S, uses a squashy rubber bung to keep the end on (or not in my case) where as most other bikes have a thread inside the bars that the end screws into. Any idea if third party ends come with the squishy rubber bits or will I need to for out for some genuine Suzuki pats to get the necessary rubber bits.

I bought some from Tomor (new ones) can't remember the make of them but they used a nylon insert that expands when the screw is tightened up in it.

Years ago fitted some from Oberon Performance.
They weren't cheap but nicely made & heavy.

Found a naked bar end weight when I was tidying up the front room yesterday (as you do)...has the squishy thing you speak of...could maybe send you the one bar end if it's just the one you're after to save forking out for a pair...screw's a bit bent and bar end is scuffed but a new one could be found easily enough...

Thanks for the offer Missy. I've just ordered a pair from ebay. If however they don't quite work I may take you up on your offer for at least some of the bits.

You got the Renthal ones. At least someone has a half decent memory

Mark, all of the bar end parts are available separately, so if you get stuck let me know.
