have you tried a damaged bolt extractor with some heat? I know Canadian tire has a set that goes on sale constantly and should have a size big enough for the head of that bolt. The nice thing about them is that the harder you crank on the socket, the harder it bites into the bolt.

Just like this: http://www.canadiantire.ca/AST/browse/6 ... ?locale=en

Lots of great reviews on those they must work! I'll pick up a set and give them a try.

Thanks dude!

moad11, lots of love for ya brother those things work great! Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!

I pulled the fabric heat shield out of the bottom to gain some space however the hump for the jackshaft was still in the way so i put a dent in it then put the 10mm "Extract-it" on the bolt followed by a 5/8" socket to turn it and she gave right away!

Also a thanks to rlcofmn for the consult on putting heat to the motor. I ended up getting it out cold so I didn't have to worry about that.


A pic of the tool and the bolt. It actually looks like it has some sides to it in the pic but it pretty much round.

So I have the exhaust out now. I'll need to pull the bottom of the heat shield and pound out the dent I put in it as it is rubbing on the jackshaft. I have a need gasket waiting at Yamaha but I'm also going to have to get another bolt.

I guess I might have to buy a new fabric portion of the heat shield. Although I wonder if covering that with heat tape might be good enough. Any opinions on that?

They work like a dream don't they? I've used mine many times and they continue to amaze me. I actually just used them yesterday on my lower A-arm bolt in the spindle. The nut was rounded, but was no match for my extractor!!!!

I guess I need to get out more and explore the other Forums more, I just found this thread.

Looks good!!!! For the heat shield what I have done is 2" header wrap with high temp silicone for adhesive. Like 4-5 rows of that and its done, then use the silicone to seal up the edges to keep it from fraying or anything. It held up very well last year. I know Nikolai did something similar but then covered it in foil tape if I remember right.

Keep it up!!! Sick sled as always.

Well last couple of night I got out for just a couple of hours and I tore down the skid to get ready for the new rails. Laneo has hooked me up they should be in transit now.

 

[revster]

....and here is why I need new ones.

The first multi day trip of the year last year we ended up running down a trail on an old rail line to get to a play area. It was a long haul at 80-90 mph. I knew they Nytros eat sliders but I didn't know just how bad. I ate thru my sliders and burn through the rails.

I believe you spend even more time than me working on your sled,
Thats sick dude..

Is the fabric heat shield necessary? When I took mine apart it was still in tack but looked pretty ratty.

Yeah I'm not sure. Mine is pretty ratty as well and full of crap. The thing is a fire hazard if you ask me. But I have to think it's there for a reason...hehe

Yeah I'm sure its there for a reason but its back together and I don't think mines that bad. And it will be soon enough it will be back apart for the copper donut treatment.
