So i have WC clip ons and i noticed the other day one of the little black plastic caps must have fallen off my bar end. This is not a functional issue but it is a cosmetic issue ;)

So figured i could just get another plastic piece.

But i came across this thread on a 300 forum and seems like a decent idea.

Figured i would give it a go and share as well

The bar-end weights are desirable and a good thing to prevent tank-slappers or wobbles.

You are welcome, Joe :)

It is simple: the hose expands inside the tube and creates friction that prevents any pull out.
The internal nut does not turn because it has high friction against the end of the rubber hose.

Now you can add a brake lever protector !!!

I'm excited to do this and get the weights back on there.

Ill pass on the lever protectors though, I don't put the bark busters on my dirt bike so it would just be weird to do it on the street bike ;) Besides if bend or break a lever it gives me a good excuse to do a custom really really shorty lever mod :thumbup:
