[QUOTE="SMW2891, post: 1211425, member: 87551"] Ok, after a day of riding and trying different temperatures, I'm sold, they will be staying on. The heat output is great, no complaints. Turn it on, give it a couple minutes and if you have it on the hottest setting, it will be too hot. The (super) glue appears to be holding. I still don't have faith in it and next chance I get I'll be buying some real grip glue to replace. as for the end length I'm still confused and pondering possible options. Some pics - [URL="https://s1072.photobucket.com/user/SMW2891/media/imagejpg5_zpsa12cc2bd.jpg.html"][IMG]https://i1072.photobucket.com/albums/w379/SMW2891/imagejpg5_zpsa12cc2bd.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL="https://s1072.photobucket.com/user/SMW2891/media/imagejpg6_zps9c15a9ab.jpg.html"][IMG]https://i1072.photobucket.com/albums/w379/SMW2891/imagejpg6_zps9c15a9ab.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Those are the end weights that came with the bike, unknown if stock or how previous owner came up with them.
