My bike has straight bars at the minute but I wanted to see if I can now live with the wide originals. I think they look cool.
But when I got them down I found that both bar ends were plugged with what looks like weld. I wanted to swap out the straight bars and keep the screw in bar ends that I have (or be able to go to bar end type mirrors later.)
It looks like something that would be done to prevent the bars vibrating but is it the original or has someone done this later? (No evidence of bluing of the chrome.) I thought of getting someone to drill it out but not even sure if this can be done.
