I don't know where to get them. I suspect somebody will chime in.
I'll make two points.
1. You won't pass inspection with those. Bar ends needs to be such that they will not poke through your body meats if the bike falls on you. So they're illegal, at least in Texas. Probably elsewhere too.
2. Those spiked bar ends will poke through your body meats if the bike falls on you.

As always, to each his own.
But I think such things are the fodder of darwin awards...
I've seen people get core-sampled by the end of a bicycle handlebar that didn't have a plug in it. That wasn't pretty, and that was just a bicycle -- bicycle weight at bicycle speeds... Please be sure to post a pic when you get stabbed by your bike.

But if you don't, eBay might be a good place to look. Thing is, the way our bar-ends attach is not the norm so it might be more difficult.

Yeah if you read around you will see lots of stories where bar go into motorcyclists chests and kill or severally injure them. Dont make it easier. :thumbup:

I agree. Plus why would you want to pay to make your bike LESS safe?

I'll have to agree with all the people here. Safety was the first thing that came to my mind as soon as I saw the thread title.

haha yeah you should have just titled it "your thoughts on my thoughts of spike bar ends"
seriously though, hope you pass on that. Save that look for the wannabe cruiser guys. I can't imagine the pain my blackberry would give me in my front pocket, much less having a point go in my thigh or something. Heck I'd more likely just bump it all the time in the garage like a moron.

Hold on a minute....I know hundreds of cruiser guys and I think every single one of them would say exactly what we are saying "Forget it"
There is always someone who will want them but I do not know any of them.

Great on a show bike and in a Mad Max movie. I am sorry that I have to agree with all he above.
I have seen lots motorcyclist with injuries sustained by bar ends.
1. Splenic tear
2. Groin injury
3. Rib injury
Don't do it.

Good man, now you're thinkin'!
How about somethin' like these.
I certainly wasn't trying to cap your buzz, just don't like to see folks put themselves at undue risk. I hope that you find something that you like.
