The clutch and brake lever mounts are already symmetrical, so I would rather not move either of them, but maybe I will split the difference just for the sake of my compulsion.

It really seems to me a combo of throttle tube 1/4 in too long and same controls pinned 1/4 inch too far inboard... but I have been wrong about things like that before.

I was looking at new grips and I have really liked ODI Rogue for my mountain bikes for many years... I see they make Rogue for MX as well... is it safe to assume MX grips are compatible with motorcycle handlebars?  Actually, I should just check with ODI directly I guess.

I will take pictures of bar ends later when I am doing some other wrenching (hoping to be plugging in a flashed ecu later today!!!)
