    Very Nice!!!! I was thinking about those swing arm caps today. And, I too, am curious about the anti-vibe bar ends.

    Could I ask you to shoot another pic of that swingarm from the left side?

    Thanks again!

    Wonder why they didn't make the "Y-Factor" logo red, as elsewhere.

    Default Billet swing arm caps

    Were the swing arm caps easy to install? Seems I read they are used to adjust the belt tension. Do you jut bolt them on or do you have to readjust the belt tension?

    There is no interference with the belt tension.

    Another question.. Do the Anti-Vibe bar ends just push in, after unscrewing and pulling off the plastic end caps?

    Thanks!

    Correct, and respect the instructions for tighten the bolt. Prepare the magnifying glasses to read BRP directions (way to small...).

    Oh! So, there's a bolt to tighten behind the logo cap? Or; that is the bolt?

    One in the bar end, the other one is at "6 a clock" in the cover.

    Thanks for the update. I think that is probably why my dealer is holding off on obtaining the bar ends. He will want to give it all to me at once. Can't ride for a while anyway. Too much stinkin' snow, ice and road salt.

    Default brp bar ends

    They really do work, well worth the money, may not get rid of all the vibes but are a noticable diffrence. Very simple to install and look good too.
