    Has anyone else seen this issue? It almost looks like my bar ends are coming out of the handle bars. I took the screw out and looked inside, it alomst looks like the mount is too far out. I just bought my VFR two weeks ago, so if this is not a new issue, I am sorry. Just hoping there is an easy fix.

    Thanks,
    Dave:wacko:

    The bar ends on my '98 used to get loose and I would keep retighting them. I was kinda discusted with it, such a wimpy attachment. I knew I was going to the 4th gen bars so I didnt screw with trying to fix it. The 4ths are a way beefier attachment - I like.

    IF the screw is tight it might be that it is working the rubber dampener out of the bar. Smack it with a rubber mallet a few times and see if that helps
