i got them on my friend's bike shop.

the bar end are included in the whole assembly of the hand grips.

i highly recommend this kind of hand grips, they are the best hand grips i ever used so far. here are my conclusion.

1. stylish design
2. the right hand or the throttle part don't slip easly like the convention ones wherein the rubber grips (like i used before the Progrip hand grips) they tend to slip on the handles when got old and wet so you have to secure them with wire or zip ties.
3. less fatigue on both hands.
4. the grips have fine groves so it wont slip in any gloves or bare hands. the groves are made of rubber not metal.
5. the grip adapters (the part where you secure the throttle cable to the throttle grip) are larger than the standard NC29, which makes it a "quick throttle". no need to bend those hand too much for quick accelleration.

Do you have a link for the steering damper?

Chris.

look for Matris Steering Dampers. I believe you can also use other good top mounted steering dampers such as WP, Ohlins, Harris, etc., you need only an imagination and creativity to make them fit.

Can you share how you installed the damper??

just wanted to know why you all think you need a damper for this bike?
i have owned three and rode more than that and they dont need a damper if used on the road.all you are doing is slowing your steering down,sorry but unless you were running super sticky tyres on the track with fully sorted suspension i know i wouldnt need it.this bike like the 30 and 35 is balanced beautifully if you know what your doing and i have ragged the nuts out of these over jumps,rough roads etc,so unless your planning to get on track a lot then i cant see the sense.better off saving some more money and getting a maxton/nitron/ohlins shock.now that makes a difference!
btw,bike looks good

Looks... this bike is so pimped that it would look strange without all the nice bolt ons!!

Mint bike.

steering dampers were built to have a purpose, and the road conditions here in PI might not be the same with UK or other country. if you want to hear nightmares on PI road condition ask to any forumers at http://www.motorcyclephilippines.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;.

one of my objective with this project bike is using the possible aftermarket parts out there that are not intended for NC29 but will work perfectly on it. with its age (NC29), finding an good aftermarkets similar to newer bike models is almost impossible to find one.

had anyone used VORTEX rear set on NC29?
had anyone used aftermarket rearshock with built-in reservoir like FOX TCR rear shocks on NC29?
had anyone used YOSHIMURA TRS on NC29?
had anyone thought that top mounted Steering damper like MATRIS would work on NC29?

what im trying to build is not the usual NC29 you can probably see with other NC29, and to use the good aftermarkets around.

if I'll use all those stock parts, what does my project be different to other NC29?

if one day i thought of putting a GPS, or a night vision, or an onboard cam, or celphone charger, or other unimmaginable stuffs, still my project bike would stand different from the rest and be the first one to make it possible.
