Removing handlebar plugs
I am trying to install a set of handguards, but there are steel plugs welded into the handle bar ends.
Any suggestions on how to get those plugs out?

My bad, I thought you were saying you drilled the entire weight out... The side I drilled the weight out took about a 5/8 drill bit and the bar got so hot it melted the grip glue.

I happened to have the correct tap for the bolts that come with the tusk guards that I received today (8MM x 1.25). I drilled the hole out and started tapping. I was taking my time and I broke the tap off in the plug...GRRR.
So now, I'm probably going to go buy some dremel stuff to grind the welds off. I'm kind of bummed, I was liking the idea of keeping the weights in there because the bars aren't vibratey now as it is and I'm scared that it will get bad...
