When you get the bars let me know if the ends of the bars are filled with lead.
I need a set but I want to make sure they have the lead in them. It makes a difference as far as vibration.

Agreed, enquiring minds wanna know.... (Although, Im certain its a substitute for lead...health hazards and all, just sayin)

Always wanted to try a slug suspended in soft silicone in the bar ends, should work well?
Yamaha did something very similar in the venture "handlebars".
I found out when I went to heat and unbend them a bit,

even with three adjust points, still needed :gggGaryizing

I've been told by many folks in the dual sport/adventure bike world, that you can silicone one end shut, fill with lead shot tightly, then seal the other end and it works well...never tried it though.

Similar to the old "Bar Snake" lead rope type deal they used to sell commercially.

Appears so - there's something plugged in there - and they're heavy......

Could be steel. I put a knife tip to what's in the end of a set of bars I have and it made no mark, and these bars are stock Standards.....as best as I can tell.
