Default Does anyone have R&G Racing Bar ends on their bike?

Was wondering how people find them?

How do they feel? Much different to the originals in terms of vibration through the bars?

I have them on my SV as they were there when I bought it. Didn't notice any difference in feel or anything like that. Not put them down on tarmac so don't know about that, but when I wrote a Corsa off with my bike one of the ends popped off. No other damage to the bar end.

Quick call to R&G and a replacement was dispatched quickly and at a reasonable price. Got to say I was happy with the service they provided.
