Falco bar ends

#1 Post by SkinnyPinny » Sat Mar 21, 2009 10:16 am

hi all,
does anyone know if bar ends from any milles/tuono will fit the falco ?
I lost one this week, and I can find cheap replacements for milles but Falcos are not listed,
the ones available seem to be the tapered ones rather than the round ones we have.
my nearest dealer doesnt know, and did not have any for me to look at.

I see rsvr do a set in stainless which look good,
ta, Skinny

...not that I notice, but then and again I'm a bit of a performance-luddite so any pronounced vibration I'd probably put down to v-twin character or somesuch bulldust :smt016
