General Product Information

The BarEnder™ lock is designed to give you years of use. Made in the USA out of stainless steel to last, and stay looking good. The BarEnder™ can be used on all hollow type handlebars. The BarEnder™ is made to fit 7/8 in., 1 in., 6mm, and 8mm handlebars. Please note that 7/8 in. and 1 in. measurements are O.D.

The BarEnder™ has a security key mechanism, and the product has a clean appearance. Hanging your helmet at the end of the handlebar keeps it away from exhaust pipes and saddlebags. It also keeps it off of the seat or mirror, where it has a chance to fall off or be taken. With some jackets, the sleeve can be pushed onto the handlebar, and the helmet locked at the end of the handlebar. This way the jacket can not be removed over the locked helmet at the end of the handlebar.

At present, BarEnder™ locks will fit "hollow" motorcycle handlebars that have a diameter of either 1 inch or 7/8 inch O.D., and "solid" or blocked handlebars having a permanent end fastening nut of 6 or 8 mm. We have found that some models and modifications may not be compatible with BarEnder™ locks, especially when it comes to the 1" and 7/8" models. For example, existing handlebars with chrome end caps aren't compatible, unless the owner wants to remove, or modify the end caps, because that's precisely where the BarEnder™ locks will be installed. Motorcycles with heated handlebars using an internal routing of the wires inside the handlebar tube may not be suitable, because the expanding pressure seal of the BarEnder™ lock inside of the handlebars may damage the wires, if they are in the way of the lock bar. Your helmet will fit if it has "D" rings on the chin strap, or some other small, preferably metal fastener with an internal diameter of 1/2 inch. Please see the attached copies of the installation instructions and the pictures of a helmet fastened to a BarEnder™ lock.

 


Installation instructions: 7/8 and 1 inch O.D. shafts

Special Note: On vehicles without existing barend weights, the grip may have to be cut out at the end to allow the BarEnder to be installed. The hardest part is removing the old barend weights that come equipped from the factory. Once this is done you are ready for the BarEnder helmet/accessory lock.

First, make sure the inside of the handlebar is free of any obstructions, and clean in the inside. Then tighten the nut on the BarEnder™ and compress the orange silicone bushing enough to cause a snug fit when installing into the handlebar. Push the BarEnder™ shaft into the handlebar with the locking head still on it. Once you have determined the proper gap between the locking head and the end of the handlebar/grip, take the locking head off and tighten the shaft with a large screwdriver, being careful not to move the shaft in or out, or over tighten it. Place the locking head back on the shaft and you're ready to go.

 

 
 


Installation instructions: 6 and 8 mm shafts

Special Note: On vehicles without existing barend weights, the grip may have to be cut out at the end to allow the BarEnder to be installed. The hardest part is removing the old barend weights that come equipped from the factory. Once this is done you are ready for the BarEnder helmet/accessory lock.

The 6 and 8mm version of BarEnder™ locks just replaces the existing 6 or 8mm bolt used to hold the current barend weights on. Remove your old barend weights, and replace the 6 or 8mm bolt with the 6 or 8mm stud and lock receiver unit. Measure the distance between the locking head and the end of the grip. Approximately 3/16 is needed for the "D" ring to fit between the lock head and the end of the grip. If more of a gap is needed between the locking head and the end of the grip, use flat washers to move the lock receiver unit away from the handlebar, thereby increasing the gap. Insert a large flat bladed screwdriver into the slotted end of the lock receiver unit, and tighten, being careful not to over tighten it. Place the lock head on, and you are ready to use your new BarEnder™ lock.
