I crashed

[EnzoYug]

Luckily i was only doing about 80ks when it highsided and it was on brake into the corner and it slid untill it griped and over i went

Any high-side is good to walk away from, 80k's is dead lucky. +1 for your gear

Just a guess, your old man was leading?

[Donut]

Nah i was leading... bad idea on a road i didnt know

[Donut]

Jinkies! Glad to hear you are okay and able to reflect on the experience! I bet your Dad was relieved he didn't have to deal with anything any more serious (Mum woulda killed him!? )

How did your gear hold up? No injuries or niggles at the moment?

Gear held out fine, i have a few scratches from the stiching in the armour and i think i may of broken my ankle .. (docotrs cost too much) otherwise its just bruised head and ego lol

Glad your okay,suggest you get your ankle checked out,ACC should cover it,otherwise it may come back to haunt you.Let me guess trying to impress dad?

Wow,Kittyhawk,didn't no you were so mechanically inclined,impressive.

Step 1 - This is the tool kit you would require to do this properly...

You can get smaller ones from places like Chevpack and any other engineering supplier.

Step 2 - The pic here is the tool for boaring out the left over bolt which is stuck

Step 3 - Inserting the tool then you screw it in. It may take several attempts, screw it quarter of a turn in to take a cut then back out to get rid of the filings, then go back in, take another cut and back out... this creates the new thread.

(remember to note weather the rest of the bolts on the bike are metric or imperial and use the correct type so it matches the rest of the bike)

You must have the right tool for the right job.
One person operates the machinery at any given time.
You have to have an eye for detail.
Time, practise along with patience will result in perfection.

Not to dark I hope!

I'm sorry but this is not the correct way to do it.
Doing it in the manner you have suggested can easily go wrong.
The best way to do it is to drill a hole in the center of the bit you wish to remove. Then insert an easy-out (extremly course left hand thread). Turn the easy-out anti clockwise and the remaining part of the handlebars should unscrew.
Important - Be very gentle. Don't apply to much pressure unless you want the easy-out to snap.

And before you say "what the fuck do you know". Its my job to know.

Just as well you know then seeing as it's your job Seriously that is the correct way ( its also my job to know ), easy-out and then run a tap down to clean the thread up and it's all sweet.

I didnt realise there was an easy-out tool, if I had of known that, would have suggested it. Mine was purely a suggestion based on personal knowledge and experience.

And nope I couldnt give a toss weather it was your job to know or not lol, you are who you are, you know what you know

So how sexy are your overalls?
