I have never had the bar-end weights on any bike previous and I think I am used to the vibrations (if there are any), therefore, I didn't bother with this one either.
Thanks Dale. I find the search on here quite tricky as there are so many sections and they all have to be searched individually.

You might be right about swapping to Renthal bars. I was considering this anyway, and as I need to fit guards and heated grips maybe that's all easier on a new bar.
