What I do is drill the bolts out further, until there isn't much left but the threads. I've always been able to peel them out after that. You do have to be very careful, so as not to ruin the threads Tim Crump AMA#664988 MGNOC #262 FSSNOC #3057 AMF#100239 98 Moto Guzzi V10 (1000) Centauro 69 Moto Guzzi 750 Ambassador 80 Moto Guzzi 500 V50 II 98 KTM 620 Rallye Adventure "Remember, traffic lights timed for 35, are also timed for 70 mph!!" http://msnhomepages.talkcity.com/YosemiteDr/guzzitim/GUZZITIM.html _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer athttp://explorer.msn.com |
