Title: Kickstarter bolt
Post by: air on May 31, 2006, 02:22:18 AM
Well I noticed that my kickstarted bolt was loose so I grabbed an allen wrench snugged it up and POP!

The head turns off the bolt and I got a d**n bolt with no head jammed inside my kickstarter. Im hoping it wont be a pain to get out. But I was just wondering if its safe to go and buy a bolt from the hardware store to throw back in there or is there a reason to buy the replacment bolt? Obviously its not too strong.

Awesome got it out today pretty easily (the first try with an easy out :D) found a metric allen bolt to go back in there looks almost stock, I poured the lock tite into that hole also!
