Heavy bar ends

Once upon a time,,, in a web site far far away,, while surfing for toys... I found a site that had heavy bar ends/inserts. Supposed to lower bar vibes. Now I can not find them... Help?

The stock bar ends are pretty heavy.
You could always melt some wheel weights & fill the bars with lead
No really.... I actually read that on another forum.

Looks like the stock bars already have weights in them

I put vortex bars on my S'hawk & didn't notice much more vibration over stock. The vortex bars are very light.
Have you tried a set of Oury Road grips yet?
They help a lot over stock grips....love mine!
txcliffhanger has some.
They're only about $10 & last a long time

well i installed them but wont be able to try them out til the weekend. the installation was easy of course...its bar ends, come on!! but they do have a slightly different set up which leaves a larger gap than stock. as far as the distance between the grip and bar end...so i will have to buy a new set of pro grips. and on the left side i have a CRG bar end mirror which barely and i mean barely clears the much larger weighted ends. so overall it went well and if anyone wants pics i can snap a few

Another member has done this and reckons they are good, and cut the vibrations down. I think it was Mikstr but not quite sure.
