I just wiped out a couple of days ago and the only thing that happened was one of my bar ends popped off, one of the ones the plugs the hole. What should I do? Just put tape over it?

buy some proper allen key on bar end plugs. they are much better than the press in ones.

Get another plug. if you crash without plugs, the bar can extract a core sample of your body if you don't have a plug in it. You'll be walkin around lookin like Fearless Fosdick. Oh wait you guys are all waaay to young to know who that is.
