Was doing some mods then had a prob!
Hi all
havent done much posting cos mainly I'm useless on computers but been learning. So today after months of being sick then lazy done some mods on my bike. They were R&G Crash Bungs, and R&G Tail tidy with new smaller numberplate Ermax Bellypan and Hugger, Fuel Carbon Effect Stubby Exhaust. Then disater strikes had bought a Accumen Charger and was goin to fit its aux leads to batery only to find that previous owner has rounded the head on the bolt that secures the seat in place. So am lookin for some suggestions on what to do. Shoulda mentioned that I have a 2006s model in Candy Napoleon Blue. |

Re: Was doing some mods then had a prob!
is the actual bolt that holds the seat on or the one that holds the cover plates over the bolt that holds the seat?
if it's the former i think there's enough room to slot it with a dremel and use a large screwdriver to remove it

Re: Was doing some mods then had a prob!
For the outer one I had been advised to tap a torx bit in there to get purchase, worked well for me but not so sure on the bigger one behind. best of luck with it though!
