Misc / Open / Re: What happens if an exhaust mounting stud snaps off?
« Last post by Spitfire on Today at 01:40:46 PM »I came across this when I was stripping down the F1 to start the rebuild, at first there was a broken stub visible about 1 inch, so I tried heat, penetrating oil, freezing stuff all to no avail.
I then used a roller type extracter which broke the stud revealing that nothing at all had penetrated
So it was head off and away to a machine shop, this did not bother me too much as I then could check the top end as the bike had been in storage for 10 years, I did find a stuck piston ring so it was worth it.
