  2. I have a pair of almost new 9 spd dura-ace bar end shifters. $40 plus
    shipping unless you're in the Seattle area, which will save time and $$
    on shipping. Let me know...

    FWIW: Shimano makes only one grade of bar-end shifters- they're not
    "Ultegra" or "Dura-Ace" anything. There was a set compatible withe the
    peculiar 8-speed Dura-Ace shifting, but that's moot since Shimano's
    standardized their indexing.

    I've got several bikes with them, including one 7-speed set. They
    don't wear out.

    Interesting, the box that my SL-BS77 bar-end shift levers came in says
    Dura-Ace all over it.

    And so did the box my SL-BS-64-8 shifters came in- Dura-Ace. Yet they
    weren't Dura-Ace at all. They were 8 speed NON-Dura-Ace compatible....

    Given the low volume of bar end shifters, I wonder if Shimano only
    prints up one box and slaps different labels on the end for different
    models.
