A mate has got a GS1200 with a worn rear disc. The T40 bolts that hold it on are like cheese and semi recessed. This mate has rounded one and has asked how he can get it out. The disc is fitted to the hub so he cant take the wheel to his local engineering shop unless he can remove the hub. For this he will need an extractor!
Anybody have any ideas how he can remove the last bolt? I suggested warming the disc. Does it sound like that might work? He can't cut the head off because it is recessed and he can't tap the bolt round with a centre punch because its recessed.
