I recently bought a set of Shogun frame sliders that also include the bar-end sliders. When I installed the bar ends from this kit there was a really noticable increase in vibration in the clip-ons...to the point where I just took them off. Anyone noticed this too ?

My guess is that the stock bar-ends are much heavier (for a reason) and they dampen clip-on vibration...whereas the sliders are so light in comparison that you feel much more in terms of vibration.

Not a big deal going to the stock ones...just curious if anyone else had the same experience.
