Maybe I should set up a little gig and put kits together... 20 bucks american, plus shipping.. LOL.....

I have my Kx125 throttle on there right now because I broke my BBR throttle housing the other day so there is no pic of it. But you can see my left grip, it has one on there. Just cut your throttle tube and grip off about 1/4 inch back slide it on and put the bar end back on. You can do this with metal throttle tubes too. Just grind all the burrs out of the inside. when ou put it back on make sure you leave a little room at the end so it doesnt rub and cause throttle lock. Me and a buddy of mine did this and it is honestly on of the best ideas we have had so far. I also have some peg ideas on there too in bike pics of all this I have been talkin about.

bar ends
Yeah, you will definatley eat up less grips, but it saves your plastics too, as well as the rest of the bike from makin earth contact. Just think of them as frame sliders for a fiddy. When you get home lay you 50 on its side. You'll see that the bar ends, tires, shift lever (thats not a big deal if you have a folding one)and foot pegs are basically all that make contact. Grind pegs help with this too. They keep the back of the bike from touching completely. So why not put the bar ends on there to raise it up a hair, and give the bike somethin to slide on. You'll see when you try it. Check out my page on bikepics.com. It's: http://www.bikepics.com/members/jspecb16a/01xr50/
I'll put a pic of this on there for ya. L8'r
