Default Bar Ends

Ello,

Are the Motrax Pro Bar Ends any good? They look a lot lighter than the OEM bar ends and I was wondering if installing pro bar ends will introduce vibration to the handlebar due to them being lighter.


Any information or experience had with after market bar end would be great.


Cheers

Not sure about motrax - I use r&g ones they were around £15-£20. expensive for what they are I suppose, but they were what was most recommended to me.

usually heavier bar ends reduce vibration, lighter ones aren't as effective. Hence the SV1000 bar ends are longer and heavier than the 650, as the bigger engine creates more vibes.
