    Are these gaps normal?

    Here are two pictures of the gaps I have between the bar ends and the grips.
    Everything is tight.

    Could crop-circles be the work of a cereal killer ?

    Those are factory grips.
    They just have grip puppy covers on them.

    Bob, that's a pretty large gap in the right picture.

    The dampener and the weight end each have a half moon key to them. If they are not turned right and fitted into each other, they will stack up and you will have a large gap.

    On my bike, you could slide a driver's license into the gap, but that is about it (more like your left picture).

    Maybe try loosening your weight end, then turn it and see if it slides in (you too, Doug).
