The area circled in red is one of the retainer tabs. The green area is the hole in the bar.

Unebelievable! What kind of moron steals a bar end!?!

Did they take the whole thing? Or just the end? Why would anybody do that? especially the stock ones.

They can indeed be a bit of a bitch to remove!

I agree I love the stock ends. And it was just the end they took, there is no way the damn thing fell off. My daytona is a daily driver no matter the weather. I would have noticed the thing getting loose. Plus I ride with my little finger on the bar end I would have felt it fall off. I also saw it was on there the night before when I parked it outside.... Wish I could find the asshole that did it

Those jerks are all over. Years ago I rode up to Monterey for the GP, then afterwards I went up north to ride some of the roads. I was staying at a pretty nice hotel, so I thought.

I get up the morning I was heading back to SD, only to find some douche bag had taken my Throttle Meister off the right side of my VFR ! I was totally bummed and pissed.

Crazy thing was on the ride back down, I did not notice any more vibes or buzzing. It still pissed me off, wish is was just a bar end rather than the lock that they got. Sometimes shit just happens.
