Guess my time has came, just broke a few days ago. Couldn't get it out with an easy out. Local shop drilled it out and re threaded the hole for $15. Bike only had 16K miles.

$15? Count your blessings LOL! I broke off both bolts and ended up replacing the head and then finally finding a shop that got the old bolt out of the original head. Go by the good advice found here for the reinstall. BTW, I went with the NRHS mount even though the stock mount wan't broken. Check your top isolator too.

Safe ride,

check and likely replace the rear isos.

15$ nice, check the FACE that the mount clamps to if its messed up you are not finished yet both faces must be flat and on the same plane if not you get to do this again..
