[quote=idf000;87026]Hi,
The bar end insert thingies are wedged inside the stock Yamaha bars and before I apply de rigeur brute force and ignorance I thought I'd ask.

thus splaying the thingy (4) and locking the whole setup into the inside of the bars.

So, to undo it, should I screw the bolt back in then tap it ever so gracefully with a hammer to push the taper beyond the splayable thingy then wiggle everything until Bob's yer uncle?

Even then that thread suggests I might need to get creative to increase the diameter of the insert to get it to grip non-steel bars. That's a problem for when they're out!

Im loving some of the technical terms I think Kev better watch out theres a new techie in town
