I finally got back into the shop tonight (well, last night
technically, since it's just past midnight) to finish up the Z's barend weights. No more broken cutters this time, which was pleasing.

Unfortunately, now that the weights are shorter (by about 5mm), the bolts I got to attach them are too long. For some reason, there's a blockage about 20mm inside the barend threads. I ended up riding home from the shop with the barends loose on their bolts. They definitely make a difference: the bars were noticeably more buzzy without them firmly attached. I'll pick up new bolts tomorrow, then I can stop thinking about them. Hooray!
