problem with handgrips

[roy1962]

Hello i have a problem with bar end weight,i have undone screw ,and now cant get it to screw back in,any ideas please.thanks

in what way wont it go back in?

Will it go like half way in then sort of seize up and not turn any more?

maybe spray some wd40 in or retap it if the threads really are mangled

to get the bar end out (with mine at least) you undo the bolt which goes through the bar end, and then through a bit of rubber and into a nut. To put it back on, put it all together and put the nut on and tighten slightly before putting back in the bar. Then once it is in tighten it up more until you have a snug fit

it sounds like you have undone the screw completly and released the nut held by the rubber in the handlebar if you cant get the rubber and the nut out it might mean that you will have to push the rubber right into the handlebar and then fit new bar ends

Lighter bar end weights could cause you more vibration through the bars.......
