    I don't like the handle bar caps that sit at the end of the grips. Anyone have some good ones they could recommend? I don't like the way the stock ones look and fit. There is a sizeable gap between the grip and the cap - more so on clutch side. The same thing was going on with the stock grips. I would like something that attaches flush witht he end of the handle bar.

    Thanks!

    It seems to be an issue with these bikes. Its possible that it is working its way out or that you need to pull the grip out a bit. The problem is that the ends are part of the anti-vibration unit that slips in the bar. Tori may post up as he had this issue with his.

    Yah, I tried stretching out the grips as much as possible (stock and after market). They sit at the same position - very odd. It's really a "look/feel" type thing for me but I definitely wouldn't want to jeapordize functionality.

    Thanks for your help!
