I used bark busters in gold, they are for MX bikes and have no weight, but I've not had any vibe issues. They lend themselves to the slim look that I'm after for the bike (must try that for myself too).

I had to cut one of the rubber tubes from the O/E bar inserts to use as a fitting and they've been sweet.

There are many aftermarket parts out there.

I'll look for a link to mine.

Good luck

These are the bad boys I'm using. Not an exact match to the Ohlins forks, but hey, I'm the good looking one!

Now I know I could have edited my original post, but a couple of bottles of fizz has my post whoring gene in overdrive.
