Lost exhaust header stud
Does anyone know where I could get the exhaust header stud? While I was riding today one of mine decided it didnt want to be attached to the engine anymore...
Would these work? http://www.ebay.com/itm/1981-Honda-X...1XLSGB&vxp=mtr Thanks. |

Ugh, went out to see if the bolt would work and I see it actually just broke off in the head.
Any ideas on how to get that out? |

"Alden Tools" (Pro Grabit and or Micro Grabit) works for me every time
https://www.amazon.com/Alden-8440P-G...dp/B001A4CWHO/ or https://www.amazon.com/Alden-4507P-G...dp/B000Q60UOO/ If you have a Menards/Home Depot/Lowes, check those places first, they usually have these extractors in stock for less than Amazon

I've had pretty good luck with the "Soak it in WD40 when warm, let it cool overnight, soak it in WD40 again...and get a small pick and try to spin it out" method. Many times they're not buried to the bottom.
Good luck!

Thanks everyone for the tips, I ran to the store and got a screw extraction set and it worked perfect.
So thankful, couldve been such a headache. I ran to the store and got a stainless 8.8 bolt and put it in with a lockwasher and washer. So far so good! Thanks again everyone! |

Mine did the same exact thing. Same bolt too. I used a M8-1.25 bolt with washer.
