Barkbusters Handguard Instalation probleme cause of stock handlebar
 

Lets get to the point, i bought these nice handguards :

Barkbusters VPS Handguard for 7/8

I also bought the supermoto sliders to go with em and the endbars weight for looks.

I tried installing em tonight on Stock handlebars.. OOPS no go ..
Theres an insert inside the stock klx250s 2012 and so I cant bolt these on unless I remove this insert and so my question is... is it possible to remove it ? It seems like there's 3 welds on the outside, if I buff em off will the insert come out ?

Or do I have to just buy a nice new handlebar with grips.. ? Oh and ya.. what is the easiest way to remove the handgrip on the clutch side.. ?

Thanx

Ps: my english aint so great because i'm french .. sorry folks :p

Air pressure will remove the left grip.

Some have trimmed the bars right after that welded in piece in the stock bars. Better to replace the bars with a new pair,stock bars bend if you look at them wrong!

This has been talked about quite a bit in other threads. I've heard a few different methods, one that comes to mind is using a Dremel on the welds.

I just tapped it

I ground the welds down and blew the plugs out with compressed air.

i ground the welds off (they are just tacked on)

then i drove a wood screw in the end and pulled it out with a hammer

worked like a charm :)
