Can anyone tell me if factory Stelvio guards are plug-and-play on a GRiSO? Thanks.

Yes - just adds (too much for me) to width of bars

Different bar end weights. I know that much but can't remember if they come with the guards or not....

Yep. Work great. I didn't use on the GRiSO, but on my Norge, don't need or want on the GRiSO as I don't tour on it or ride long distance in bad weather. But they fit the GRiSO, Norge, 1200 Sport, and with a small extension, on the V7 as well. REALLY nice when paired with heated grips. I ride my Stornello and 12S year round, GRiSO is a fair weather day tripper.

You could also try BarkBusters - they work really well. Factory is just down the road from me - good people. Distributors throughout the world. you can even add running lights and blinkers to them for a little extra visibility.

Saw some photos of LED equiped Barkbusters illuminating a night time camp set up. Looked to be a very convenient geegaw.

Nice I'll have to give a look at them.. Was looking at combining handguards with Hippo hands to help with cold...

Did a ride and it was 37 f from 6:30 am - 9ish. So I couldn't feel my hands.

FYI at 37 f a little snowflake pops up on the GRiSO Dash!!!

They fit, you may need to move cables above/below levers depending on your setup.
I have a set and used to run them before moving to warmer climate. The bar ends add width to the bars, 1" a side or thereabouts, and give a dumbo look but do help with wind.

Some inflation there. The set was $75 back in 2013 and now 115, wow.

Odder- Is that set for sale if you removed them for after moving to warmer climate?

How about heated gear to extend the season? Last year I went with “Warm and Safe” glove liners and zip pullover. They do a great job on cold days.
