Straight down to business. Clear explanation and no distracting music. I like it. Thank you!

Thanks for the video!! Although it's FAR EASIER to LEAVE the bar weight on the end. Roll back the handgrips so you can see the holes in the bars. Use a pointy object to rotate the clips sideways so the tabs go under the edges. Then spray with some light oil. Pull it out by the bar end.

I tried prying it out with screwdriver but did not work. I used the technique and it worked well. I simply grabbed the bar end screw with a pair of pliers and lightly tapped the pliers with a hammer and it came out! Thanks.

Sometimes just removing the bar end screw is a nightmare (red Loctite). I've had to heat it up on my Ninja 250, making a sheet aluminum shield to protect the grip.

So... If you don't want to damage the clip, just pull de weight till you se the clip, and with two flat screw drivers push to the center of the weight. And you take them off in half of this time and you can use them again.

Man, ive done it 100 times but one of my screws would not budge, thought I was losing my mind haha. Thanks

Great video! Alternatively, you can buy a long M6 rod or bolt, screw on a couple of nuts and washers and then screw it into the handlebar. Then, take a crescent wrench around the rod and use a hammer to pound the wrench to pull out the retainer.

First video I found and its exactly the same bar end as on my Honda Hornet

I'm having an issue with this now. Problem is, unable to break loose the screw in the bar end. The whole bar end, screw, and insides just keep turning. Want to add heavier ends to a Honda CBR400R. Pretty much the same as 500R in the US but I'm in Japan.

Buen video, los clips valen poco en la casa oficial. La única forma de sacarlo sin romperlo es quitando los puños de goma y presionar las dos pestañas de los clips a través de los dos orificios del manillar.

The weight might has threadlocker on it. Mine hard to remove and i had to ask the mechanic to force pull out the the whole weight by using hammer.
