So I was meticulously checking the alignment/spacing/etc of everything on my handlebars...
Bar end weights, grips, clutch and brake lever mounts are all symmetrical.... and the control housings for turn signals/horn and starter/kill switch are not symmetrical.
I wish that kind of stuff didn't bother me, but the 1/4 inch of white throttle control tube showing stands out like a sore thumb (and was the reason I started measuring so obsessively) and now that I know, I find it pretty annoying.
Since the control housings are pinned I am trying to figure what the most practical solution is (and at the same time I am thinking about going to a slightly thicker set of grips that might absorb more buzziness than the hard stock grips).
Anybody know approx size of the pin holes in the bars? I am thinking of drilling an additional hole 1/4 inch further, but not if it would significantly weaken the handlebar.
Just use some end-cutters to cut the pin off and then mount the housing where I want it nice and snug?
Either way, I assume part of the problem is that the throttle tube is 1/4 inch too long as well, right?
If I am being dumb and missing something, let me know.
