Handlebar caps
Simple items but ones with a significant visual impact, these anodized aluminum bar-end plugs offer outstanding color and design. Rizoma provides unique styling, ensuring every detail makes an impact. WEIGHT (each) 34 gr. MA531 can’t be used in combination with BS071, BS145 and BS232 mirrors.
Before you start mounting the product please check the completeness of the kit
on the part list. The difficulty level and the time of assemblage shown do not
include the removal of OEM components. Improper installation can cause the
throttle to remain open after it is released, resulting in loss of motorcycle
control, an accident, personal injury or death. Before riding, open and
release the throttle at various positions along its travel to make sure that
the throttle operates smoothly and forcefully snaps back to the closed
position. If there is any delay or if the throttle remains open, even for an
instant, remove and re-install the handlebar cap. See your retailer for
assistance or advice.
After installation, completely turn handlebars from left to right and back
again, several times. Make sure the handlebars move freely and without
obstruction. Check all the throttle, brake and clutch cables, hydraulic lines
and electrical wires to make sure they are not limiting the movement of the
handlebars, and that they are not binding or becoming kinked or caught in
anything. Make sure that all components of your motorcycle continue to
function properly. Improper handlebar riser installation could lead to
throttle, brake or clutch malfunction and loss of motorcycle control,
resulting in an accident, personal injury or death. Be sure that the nominal
diameters of your handlebar risers and handlebars at the clamping point are
the same. Do not force the handlebars and risers together. The handlebars and
risers should rest together easily and at the clamping point, without any
play. If you have any doubt whatsoever, please see your authorized RIZOMA
dealer. Failure to properly match the diameters of the handlebar risers and
handlebars and clamps could cause the handlebars to fracture, resulting in
loss of motorcycle control, an accident, personal injury or death.
