No not that.
Saw these in an ad in Rider mag. Snake oil or viable?

Looks like the real deal -- doesn't look like scamware to me.

But, will these work with our stock handlebars ? I don't think so. I think you need different types of bars to accommodate these.

I agree, the stock bars (at least on a Gold Wing) have a piece in the handlebar that the bar end screws into, you would somehow have to remove that piece to get these things to work, then once that is removed you probably could not back to stock ends,

The stock bars are solid with a 10 mm X 1.25 mm hole threaded approx. 1.5" deep. One of the photos in the link appears to be just a bolt in replacement of the stock weight. Should fit OK, don't know if it'll do as advertised.

When I first saw a pic with the name something else came to mind.

Maybe a Harley passenger seat attachment?

I have seen good reviews of these on the Buell forums. I use these:

on my Buell and have considered trying them out on my Connie. I noticed that the bar ends that Murph sells he says they are not compatible with the heated grips. Anyone know why and if I would run into this problem with other ends? Since my Connie came with Throttlemeister ends installed I thought others would likely work.
