hey man i got all the parts for tonight but!


ONE F#@KING SCREW IS F#@KING STRIPED! :rant:

so i am hoping that you have a trick up ur sleeve or a welder to weld a socket to it. And do I need to clean the parts or do u have a parts cleaner.

and do you mind if i tag along to watch (if your going to do it tonight)


Or if anyone else has a suggestion. it is the screw that holds the heal guard on to the break side rear set.(bottom srew and a 07 gixer 600)

Horizontally, or vertically? Are we talking pin-striped, or awning stripes? Inquiring minds want to know!

do you have a dremel and a cutting wheel for said dremel? if so, dont drill, cut a slot in the screw, and use a flat bladed screwdriving bit with a ratchet. I do this on carburetors and other screws that dislike cooperating, it works very well.

If you have to, just drill it out to a larger size and tap it for a larger fastener.

easy outs work too, if you have one that is appropriately sized for the fastener.

Often times it can turn out that 'easy-out' is a misnomer, though... :lol:
