Has anyone figured out a good way to put bar ends on a CityX? I've looked at a few options but none are passive additions. I'm not a fan of Mickey Mirrors but I don't want to do too much damage to get a better look.

If you've solved this puzzle can you share some pics as well? Thanks in advance!

someone modified the bar end mounts and attached them directly to the end of the hand guards in front of the grips.

I've heard that. I just can't figure out who it was (I'm thinking DTX)? I'm wondering how the vibration is with that mount. Hopefully they'll chime in and let me know how it works.

Just pull the plug out of the end of the handlebar. It comes right out. On mine, I would not attach directly to the plug since it does not seem to be very secure. If you put on a CRG or Rizoma bar end, then just buy the adapter for it.

Yep, that's exactly what I did and they haven't budged or been an issue in over a year. I don't have a CityX, but I have the handguards and Bar ends. I love them.

Duh! Sorry. I was thinking that you wouldn't be using the handguards. I took mine off.

Thanks, Loren. That looks easily reproducible.
