Now, can we get back to something more interesting, such as tyre choices?

BTW - the OEM bar ends are totaly unsuitable for the S as they are made of Alumimuim and are therefore too light to counteract the vibrations emited throught he bars. Now I don't know if this has been mentioned before but the metal used for the original bar ends is either gunmetal or brass, this exhibits the correct properties of weight / mass to perform the damping procedure ....................Dodges bullets whilst hastily retreating to the exit door :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Right, That's two hours detention for the lot of you. Report to my office after the last lesson.
You really need only two tools: WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the tape.
