Default Bar ends and handlebar weights

I have had an issue removing the stock bar ends on my 2004 cbr600rr so I was told to push in on the screw, then pull and turn and this weight from the center of the handlebar came out. So after getting the bar end off I ran into a problem...

How do I get that weight back in?

After asking my shop when I went to get some oil the guy said that I either have to buy new clip ons or just use some strong glue to stick it back in there...

Pretty much what I did when I replaced mine. I used some spare grip glue I had around from replacing them, worked out just fine

Hi. Normally, (as on my 2002 CBR 600) the weight on the end of the handlebar is screwed into the inner vibration absorbing bar, so should just screw back in. Send a photo so we can see your problem if possible.
