Who has RIZOMA grips and bar ends??

[YamahaMAXdRPMs]

Who has ordered these bar ends? the grips went on fairly easy, but when trying to do the bar ends i can get the clutch side on like cake, but the throttle is a challenge. I have yet to figure out a way to get it on there without it binding up the throttle tube. Are everyone elses handle bars recessed about an inch inside the throttle tube? How did you accomplish this?

You'll need to slide the master cylinder and throttle tube inward a little bit because the stock bar ends stuck out about 1/2" to clear that throttle tube. I did that already so I could clamp my bar end mirrors on the excess.

How do you get past the little pin hole that holds the Master C in place?

I never got stopped by anything.


If there's a peg sticking out on yours, just grind it off with a dremel. :thumbup:

I have them and did not have any problems. I will look at mine later on(when company leaves) and try to figure out what is going on.

Those of you with the Rizoma bar ends. Do you notice any difference in vibration as compared to stock?

Cheers

I noticed less vibration. I am replacing my stock handlebar with a Rizoma handle bar tonight, so hopefully my wrists won't hurt with the slightly forward position of the new bar.

Did you have any issues at all with them? Did they ever come loose or something like that? Just want to make sure I don't waste my $

No, just periodically check the tightness and you will be fine.:thumbup:

Have you tried conical Rizoma bar ends with *stock* grips? I'd like to order a pair but don't know if it'll fit

 

[aj_fz6]

I'm sure they'll fit but the cool thing about the conical bar-ends is that they are the same size as the Rizoma grips. You get a nice seamless look when you install the Rizoma grips with Rizoma bar-ends

If you do get them try this trick on the throttle side install:

Can anyone send me the diameter of the conical rizoma bar ends at the larger side (i.e. the one nearest to the handlebar)? I'd like to compare it to stock so that I get an idea how these bar ends will look like with stock grips.

Thank you

I just got what I needed from this thread - http://www.600riders.com/forum/fz6-mods/16945-new-rizoma-sportline-grips.html. It's clear that stock bar weights have larger diameter than Rizoma's.

Thanks
