Default Bar End Weights

I'd like to know if you've used them and what was your opinion on them.

Did they work by stopping mirror vibration? Did they ever fall out of the bars? And has anyone used any other kind of bar weights?

Thanks in advance.

You're welcome Now I will let you in on a "secret" The easiest and best way to find anyhting on here is via Google (the search feature on this site is terrible)

So, anytime you are looking for something - just type it in Google and end it with hdforums

example : handlebar vibration hdforums

Also, you can use "site:hdforums.com" and it will only bring up results shown on this site, rather than adding anything from any site that says hdforums.

Thanks to you both. It's funny because before I joined, I Googled questions about my bike and this site always came up, so I joined.

Still, I wish someone that has bar end weights would tell me what they thought of them.

62000 + posts in less than 18 months AND a moderator and you didn't know that? Impressive.

How would they fall out unless you rode without grips?

Yes but heaven forbid I ask a question without searching here first because someone would point out how long I've been here, my post count and that I'm a Moderator. And since I was helped earlier and got my answer, "click"!
