replacement BAR ends ?? - Joe - 03-04-2024
Hello,
I was thinking of getting some after-market bar ends, as I have a bit of buzz coming through the handlebars....
But I was warned by my service guy that these OEM ones were in fact "heavy" and anything I was likely to find would be "lighter" thereby NOT solving the problem.
Has anyone swapped theirs out from the OEM set ??
What did you get & from where ??
Are they heavier than OEM ??
Did it work to reduce the buzz at you hands ??
Thanks !!
Joe

Here's a review on Hudson Valley bar ends for the RT. I don't know if they have a set for the RS.

I installed a ser of R&G bar ends and got them from TwistedThrottle.com, p/n RG.BE0033BK for a 2016 RS. I never really noticed any "buzz" or vibration through the bars and as far as weight I didn't weigh them for comparison, but I believe if my memory works that they were a little heavier.
