I am trying to fit the R&G crash bungs: The off side went on relatively easily however the nearside M10 bolt would not come out after removing the nut.
I had a pair of those clamping pliers (cannot remember what you call them) and twisted and pulled on the bolt spraying wd40 on, no joy.
In the end I cut the head of the bolt off and knocked it back through.


What had happened was the thread of the bolt was catching on the metal bush because the bolt was askew in the tunnel. Of course now putting the new bolt through is pushing out the bush...............


Does anyone know of a way to get the components to line up properly?  I have tried a jack on the sump to lift the engine slightly, that did'nt help, would it be best to loosen all the front engine mounts?


cheers

Has anyone 1 of the above fitted or know if they're any good?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I stalled my '03 600 yesterday (only for the 2nd time in 4 months I'm pleased to say) and found that I couldn't start in 1st gear, even with the clutch pulled in.  After a lot of faffing around I found it was an issue with a dirty clutch switch so all is now good in that respect. 


However, in my investigations I also checked for the diode (as per Haynes I removed tank, unbolted wire harness and displaced) but it's not there, there's nothing "wrapped up in insulating tape".  All I could see were the wires for the coils, the fuel gauge sensor and the fuel pump but no diode.

Anyone else have one on a 02/03?  Everything's working fine now but I just want to know where it is!!

the 'for sale' section is off limits for the first 5 posts.
pretty sure a dynamic admin (like wot we 'as) could sort that out

Right, I'm due a rear tyre and am not sure what to get.  I do around 25k/year just commuting so I want something that's going to last a long time but not be stupidly expensive or hard as rock.  Any suggestions?

Ta very much

For a change worked out OK this time, a Two Brothers M2 Carbon slip on.  Makes my ears bleed with no db suppressor fitted & is lighter than my HTC wildfire but pleasantly surprised on the look of it.
