Default Need help with bar ends and windscreen?

Hi All ... My question to all of you is ..are your bar ends loose ?? I've tightened the screw as tight as I could but I can still move the bar end around.....is this Normal ?? or is mine screwed up ??

Also , I'm thinking of a double bubble windscreen do any of you have them on your bikes ?? Can you post a pic of it ...I want to see if it looks good on a 929.

thanks

I'm not sure about the bar ends. Never really paid attention to mine but heres a picture of my 929 with a Zero Gravity tinted double bubble windscreen.

If you grab them firmly and twist they will rotate, that's normal. If loose and sloppy that another thing.

Here's a pic of a Puig double-bubble, it's been my favorite screen to date.

Had the same issue with my bar-ends... Try grabbing the lose one and pulling like hell. If it comes off in your hand (as mine did), you need a new clip-on handle bar. The inside of a stock clip-on ispiecedtogether and if on piece fells, it cause a domino effect with the rest.
As for the windscreen, I have a regular tint screen that I hate. Definitely go with the DB becauseyou can't get behind the stock style.

Rooftop,thanks for the nod on the fender....well I was bored one dayand decidedthe stock black fenderneeded something. I bought some bulk decal tape from Tapeworks, they have a specific red that matches the Erioncolor. Then Ifiddled with a ziggy-zaggy pattern with construction paperfirst and then cut the tape to that pattern.Wish I had clear coated it though, the tape hasheld up great as far as adhesion and UV fade butit's now gota few road rash dings.
