R&G's on order getting some bar ends too, hopefully they fit the OEM ones do so dont see why they would not.

More bits to add on soon waiting the main bulk of parts from KTM, noticed one of my lockstops had fallen out after the first crash hence why there was more damage on second crash as the bars hit the tank (no damage to tank grahics did a sterling job).
Why did you choose this bar as a replacement. nice website top bad they don't have orange
My OEM bars were slighly bent, from KTM they are about 120GBP these Rizoma ones are the same as the ducati streetfighter, similar bend but slighly lower and im quite tall.

Others have tried and reccomend:

R&G's fitted, for reference OEM bar ends and the R&G bar ends w(hich use the allen bolt and brass weight of the OEM item) fit the Rizoma bars fine.

Just had to heat up and bend my cycle control rearset adjusters as the n/s had bent quite a lot, the lug out the frame from where the gearshifter pedal pivot looks slightly bent, hopefully it wont damage the paint on the frame if I heat it up......? anyone?
Nice Dan. I fancied some SF bars, I may look at those ones.

You know I can't help thinking it's bloody tragic you and Ben are having to re-do those kick-ass designs..all that love and effort. It's a bloody shame..
Ahh well these things happen

£25 for the two decals (tank and side panel) just sanding and spraying the panel is a PITA but I still have the paint I used in the first place, phew.

You two have a damn great attitude. Refreshing to see that. Will be interesting to watch the show!

Dan, Use a thick rag between the spanner and the frame sos you don't scratch the powder coating, you may want to sell it someday.
Pieces of leather good for that, like the leather labels on jeans.
Finished painting the panels and re applying the livery, here is the finished product and its better than before.....

Just awaiting a few parts for gear linkage and clutch lever part and im good to go.

Some close up's of the Rizoma bars too.
