Angry Broke timing cover bolts

New 2014 RK, just doing the 1k service, installing theme timing cover, broke two of the five bolts. Was being really easy removing them and the just snapped flush with the case.

Has anyone been able to remove these? Will it hurt to run with just the three installed?

Do you really mean the timing cover? There is nothing behind the timing cover on the late model bikes. So it wont hurt to run it.
