    I reckon.. Sounds a bit extreme - how do 6 bolts "shear"?... unless you drop the clutch and the clutch plate stuck!
    It's been a rough day. I got up this morning, put on a shirt and a button fell off.
    As I ran out the door, I picked up my briefcase, and the handle came off.
    Now I'm afraid to go to the bathroom.

    Sounds like a major I think you should change your bike info to "9" bikes now

    I don't think the BMW flywheel bolts are meant to be reused, I'm sure the manual says replace them every time they're out, something to do with the way they stretch, I'f I can find my old manual I'll check

    No need to, I can verify that because I read it in dads manual too.

    Bummer, but if you have another 9 bikes up your sleeve, I'm sure you will get by for now.
