Anyone using a pair of these on their KZ with the factory handle bars?

Pictured are factory handlebars on KZ900-B1 LTD.
These soft rubber grips (my faves) come with end plugs.
Grips go on and off with air pressure, in seconds.
No glue or fixative necessary.
Never slip, rain or shine.
Should fit most any 7/8" steel handlebars.
Aluminum (non-stock) aftermarket 7/8" handlebars are usually thicker metal with smaller hole, which would likely require shaving down the plugs to snug fit size.
Good Fortune!

I meant the plastic or metal 7/8" bar end sliders. I'm just going to order a cheap pair and try them.

Bar end sliders.
Bar end weights.
Bar end dual purpose.
Tremendous variety available.
New versions constantly appearing.
Whatever somebody dreams up.
Plastic, aluminum, steel, you-name-it.
If reducing handlebar vibration is also an objective, would go with the heavier bar end weights.
ebay is loaded with these things.
