I need some help with my exhaust. Under the bike, just in front of the rear tire the pipes bolt together. There is two bolt flange that should have a circular gasket that fits inside the two pipes. The bolts are hex heads. Are you familiar with the area that I'm talking about?
Well I could feel and hear that there was a slight exhaust leak right at that connection. I tried to remove the bolts to check the gasket and the bolt closest to the rear tire just snapped right off. The other one came out with no problem and what a suprise THERE IS NO GASKET INSTALLED.
Anyways, now there is a little more then 1/2 in. of bolt thread still in there and I haven't the slightest idea of how to get it out!! Is there a special tool that can reverse it out? Its either cross-threaded or warped which is why it didn't come out in the first place.
Any suggestions?
