This is not a Rizoma forum so it's fair for any Hyper owner to chime in. We're all good natured people, here to help if we can. Rizoma is overpriced and makes suckers out of people, IMO. Business 101 says don't lower your prices to get customers, people will think your products are junk. I think Rizoma uses this. Everyone knows they're priced high yet they have die hard customers. My experience with them has been entirely negative after $60 each on turn signals that didn't work. Customer service that tells me they can't help and to find a dealer in my area. I didn't like the look of any of them. They were way too different from the rest of the bike, IMO.
Are you using the stock Hyper handguards? They are basically fake. They will break too easily. From experience. Mine broke, I put on Acerbis after I vinyl wrapped them to remove their vulgar advertising. They're nice with an aluminum bar and very hard plastic. Definitely not fake and will survive most off road crashes. Maybe that's why Ducati redesigned the mirrors on the new 821 Hypers and got rid of the flip-out bar ends. Maybe it wasn't practical for supermoto riding? Nonetheless, I would like to see a picture if you attain what you are tryting to do with the bar ends. It's all good fun.
