Spoke with a guy at Salamander and they have a set of barend locks that will fit with the 1125CR high bar kit. I have not tested this kit yet... They can't do black though, but do have a adapator to allow the use of bar end mirrors. Anyone try em out yet?

Here is the email i got from em (I also wanted to install hand guards...)

Yes, I have something that will work. Just mention the 09 Buell 1125CR with factory high Al. bars, and we'll send you the right stuff.

I can fit Barkbusters, but I have to do some modeling in CAD to figure out what hardware to send, and some of that may be custom, thus pricier.

The Barkbusters would have to be mounted outboard of the weight/throttle locks, and you would have to figure out how to move the inner clamps outboard, as well. I could make adaptor parts to extend the 'Busters and keep the clamps in place, but that's money, too. On the other hand, it's often worth the investment, if you love the bike, to pay to get it how you like.

I recommend the light ones except for 1" bars, like cruisers, ultra stiff bars on buzzy bikes like the FJR1300, or cases where the OE setup already has heavy weights and the customer wants more. Otherwise the Classic setup should do the trick.


I emailed and called throttlemeister, and have not gotten an answer on weather it will work with the high bar kit. theres a thread here where a guy had to drill out the bar to fit the barend. anyone else have any information on this?
