looking for the correct bar end weights
Posted: Wed Sep 22, 2021 2:59 pm
I've been driving around now on my XJ600 for over 3000 km's and i'm noticing vibration in the handle bars at every rpm range.
I noticed the previous owner installed " fancy aftermarket grips and bar end weights " and weighing the bar ends they are a bit under 30gr each.
As I recall correctly the stock bar end weights are about 90gr each ( triple the weight) and I'm looking to install stock ones.
Only when bolting of the after market ones I noticed they are bolting on differently and I expect the steering is also not the original one.
So I'm wondering what type of fitting it is and what type of weights I could order to test if it fixes the vibrations in the handle bars.
the previous owner also did a nice job not installing the grips properly so they will have to come off anyway.
I hope you can help me further in my search for the correct bar end weights or a way how to install the OEM stock ones.
Thanks for the help and advice
