Is there a good reson the Triumph ones are heavy as hell? :???:
The question is, so what? On *any* motorcycle heavy bar-end weights reduce handlebar vibration. Sure, you might be able to save a few ounces with lighter weights, but BFD. A few ounces are not going to make you a faster rider. You will not notice the weight loss, but you will notice the added vibes.
