    stock handle bars

    oem bars have weights can I do without these and just cap the ends of the bars.
    I suspect the trackers amongst us have removed them as weight saver

    I'm no expert by I presume the weights are just there to reduce vibrations so removing them should'nt be a big issue. Someone pipe in here if I'm wrong.

        If you're looking to get rid of the weights or you're going to use aftermarket clip ons you can try the following. Get the foam in a can stuff and spray it in there. I would do this with the bars off the bike and before you drill them for the controls. If you don't feel like doing that use packing peanuts. Believe it or not both of these help.
