Because I'm a genius, I like to spend my money on things before finding out if they work. (It's so much more exciting that way!)
I've finally decided to do away wit the stock Mickey Mouse ears that came on my '09 Classic, and got myself a set of Napoleon bar ends. They're the ones that came stock on the last-gen Thruxton. I've always loved them and they fit a 1" bar, so I figured I'd be ok. Spendy spendy.
Pop the bar end weights off and there looks to be a solid piece that the stock weights screw into. They look like they go in about 1/4" before narrowing and I'm guessing that bit is removable to get to the bar and get these things mounted.
Just so I don't go breaking anything that ought not be broke, is there a trick to getting them out, or should I be looking at reselling the Napoleons and finding something else?
