Just too my bar ends off today, and a load of water dripped out. Last time I washed the bike was a couple of weeks ago. Anyone else get water inside? I'm thinking of just leaving it off for now.

Never had that problem Neutral sounds iffy to me Thumbs Down do you clean it with a pressurewasher? if not, are there any holes in the bars? Personally, i'd use it as an excuse for renthals and new bar ends Very Happy

Yeah I got water in mine when I took them off to put the new bars on. Have no bar ends now but I think I'm going to get some, though for what they are the price is abit high in my opinion.

nope, just wash it with a sponge.

just got some renthals yesterday, but have not fitted them yet :>. waiting for a quick throttle grip as well before i fit them on.

yeah, these bits and pieces are way over priced for what they are. got some of those plastic grommits with the push in pin for locking. £2.50 each!!!! should be £2.50 for 5

They are a bit pricey for 2 lumps of metal, but vibrating bars can properly mess up your hands, so it's worth having them.

Ahh one bar end and one drainage hole, best of both worlds...Minimum vibes and no water in bars. Mr. Green Thumbs Up
