 |
|
I found these bar end weights / throttle lock on eBay for only $10. To clean them up, I chucked each one in a drill press and used emory cloth followed by steel wool.

Nice Geoff 
The same kind came on my bike when I bought it. Do you know what brand they are?
Also: if they ARE the same as mine, they will soon begin to rust if you don't clear coat them. I polished mine, then polished off the rust evey few days. I eventually rattle-can primered and painted them satin black. |

Rydor, there are no markings on the parts, so I don't know who makes them. I'll wipe the parts with WD40 periodically. This should keep them from rusting.

I have a set of these on mine that I got off ebay. You can get these at Bob's BMW. I think he has them made just for him or at least that is what they told me. The one for the K11s have no picture so I put this link in. They sell them for about $90.00.

Technology has finally reached Milwaukee. Harley actually offers throttle by wire and ABS brakes on the Electra Glide.
