Handle bar insert removal.
Yesterday

I have a 2020 S40 with stock straight bars. After I removed the bar end cap I found an insert inside of the handle bar. I am trying to install a Kaoko throttle stabiliser but this insert is in the way. I have tried knocking it further in but it doesnt move. Does anyone kow why its there and how best do I move it. If a Hammer doesnt work can I drill it out?

they're welded in 2 spots on each side.
I don't think they're removable,
save yourself a lot of effort and buy new bars.

As far as I know, they are weights to neutralize vibrations in the handlebars.
Usually, they drill a small hole in the tube and slide the weight in, then they weld it in place through the hole and fill it up at the same time. If you can find that spot, you could drill a hole there and the weld would be gone. And then hope that it is loose enough to be removed. But then you will have two holes in your handlebars
or more.

Funk emergencies are a serious matter and need to be dealt with immediately.
