karlo. Good stuff! What's the go with "internal anti-vibration weights"? Are there bar end weights as well? Can you put some pics up please?
Shadow. No ****, the hair spray really works, I've used it for years. When you spray it on, it acts as a lubricant (steady you lot ), but 12hrs later the grips don't move. However, if you twist them really hard, and hold your face just right, you can remove them without damage and barely any residue on the 'bars to sand off.
When I was riding home the other day I put my hand on the bar end weight to see how much vibration the foam grips took out. The answer was sh!tloads. I'd never thought to do this before but the weights were really humming compared to the grips. With the vfr bars, so far, I'm not getting the numb finger problem that used to ruin my fun.

Also, did that work well with the stock brake and clutch lines? Thanks!

Mine are vfr750 from a '92 model but, as far as I can gather, the vfr800 ones will fit as long as they're pre vtech* (43mm forks). As long as they're for a 41mm fork leg they should be ok. None of them will go straight on and fit like the originals (lugs in the wrong place etc.), but they seem good.
