View Full Version : Black RhinoMoto bar ends, anyone?

I'm just shopping the idea around. They are the universal 0.525" models, which fit the internal diameter of my Rizoma bar.

No, I don't know if they will fit yours.

They look exactly like the black ones here with the flat buttons:

And can be found here:

They are about one-week used. I'm going back to my Rizoma bar ends because they just look better in the bigger scheme of things. I like the feel of the weighted ends but it didn't solve my mirror rattling so I might as well go back to the "bling".

I'm not opposed to keeping them, so I'm not going to give them away. I'll entertain reasonable offers. Shipping would be UPS and costs just over $10 (round down to ten for simplicity). I know because I exchanged SS ones for black and shipped them.

Let me know if you're interested, reply or PM, either way.

These will also work with most any other aluminum bar, including Renthals.

Sorry to see that these didn't work out for you, JB. Though, if these didn't, I don't think much will.

My thoughts exactly. They're perfectly good bar ends and I like the extra smoothness the additional weight gives the bar, they just didn't solve a very specific and particular vibration issue and the Rizoma bar ends look better since they are manufactured to match my bar and grips. It's no big deal. Just thought someone here might be interested in getting like-new Rhinos for a bit of a discount.

Can the rounded buttons be put on them?

As far as I know, the buttons and bodies are universal. The only difference between listed models is the diameter of the spreader. When I changed colors all I did was send the stainless bodies back and kept everything else. Steffen (from Rhino) sent me the black bar end bodies and that was it.

But I'm not positive about that. Their site might have more info. I'd look myself but I'm getting pretty tired and gonna try and crash for the night.

The end caps are universal. They sent the rounded ones to me first and resent the flat end caps only when exchanging.

Bumpity bumpity bump.

Seriously, does no one really want these?

I'm still thinking about buying them, but I'm moving next month, so if you've still got them after I get settled, then I'll probably buy them. If eBay is lingering in your mind, though, don't let me hold you up.

I can't believe you still have these. Try posting them up at sportbikes.net and wristtwisters.com .

Yeah... and a stock handlebar, stock mirrors, stock exhaust, stock wheels.... I guess I should make a new thread for JB's liquidation center.

I haven't even bothered putting my stock bits up for sale. :P

Barx, if I get my bike back, consider them sold.

Ahh... I was thinking about these today after an hour ride. I finally felt the numbness you guys always talk about after I dismounted. I was hoping they had a notch to mount bar-end mirrors. Oh well, free bump.

Gratuitous 6-month bump. I just came across the Rhinos as I was going through some stuff after the move. I'd like to find a good home for these.
