This is a custom bar end weight machined from stainless steel for a Honda NX500, weighing 350 grams, shown here with two smaller spacers. It mounts inside the end of the handlebar to add weight at the bar ends and damp vibration. On the NX500, this weight noticeably reduced the hand vibration riders felt through the bars. It was CNC turned from solid stainless steel.

Handlebars vibrate at speed and over rough surfaces, and adding weight at the ends changes the bar’s vibration frequency and damps some of it out, which is why bar end weights are a common addition on both stock and custom bikes.

Part type: Custom Motorcycle Bar End Weight (with spacers)

Material: Stainless Steel

Machining Process: CNC Turning

Surface Finish: As-machined, deburred

We Machine Custom Motorcycle Performance Parts

Stainless is chosen here specifically for its density: it lets a compact bar end part carry significant mass, more than an aluminum part of the same dimensions would. It also resists corrosion and takes a clean, machined finish. We can machine bar end weights to a specific target weight by adjusting the part’s dimensions, which matters for a component where the weight itself is the point.

The part was left with a machined stainless finish, deburred at all edges. Before shipping we checked the outer diameters for fit, the bore size and position, and weighed the finished part to confirm it matched the target of 350 grams.

We machine custom performance parts for motorcycles when the part you need isn’t available off the shelf: bar end weights, levers, swingarms, triple clamps, foot pegs and rearsets, sprocket carriers, and other billet or turned components. Parts are cut from solid aluminum, stainless steel, or other materials, machined to a specific weight or dimension as needed. Send us your drawing or target specs and we’ll quote it.

We provide custom CNC machining services for low-volume production and rapid prototyping for design verification.  Click Here to Upload Your CAD Files
