Installing the Aprilia Handguards
Are the people installing the Aprilia handguards on their NC700X using the NC700X OEM bar end weights, or using the weights that come with the Aprilia handguard kit?
I am thinking if you use the Aprilia Shiver bar weights you may have a problem removing the handguards in the future, as the Aprilia weights do not have the off-set half circle on the inside end of the OEM bar end weight, as the Honda weights do. That off-set inside end of the Honda OEM bar ends secures the NC's inner bar weight when you tighten or untighten the bar end weights. It keeps the inner handlebar weight from spinning as your turn the bar end screw. So without the off-set half circle securing the inner weight you may not be able to loosen the bar end screw.
