Yes, they are that heavy. The standard ones are £16 from any Vespa dealer.

And the do even heavier ones for Vespas with top boxes.

Thanks for the replies guy's..

the main thing common here is that you have to modify to suit unless you go thru MBD or someone similar

i'll try some independant motorbike shops in the grimsby area and on the net.

I like the way you've done yours Shocky does the local shop have a internet site???

no but these are the type i have you need to get rid of the expandable rubber bit and trim the projection that they but against off you can leave it but it makes the ends stick out to far for my likeing http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BAR-END-WEIGHTS-U ... otohosting

grips wise if you cant get the tzr ones (if thats what you want) these are a good alternative http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Renthal-Superbike ... 240%3A1318
i biught the last 3 sets from the shop i went to they said there was no demand for them anymore and they wouldnt be restocking them all mine are accounted for before you ask
