I was putting on my new Stabilizer that I got from Throttle up Industries and as usuall I was In a hurry to try it out, Well I was going to go get some better bolts but the Hardware store was closed, So I figured I'd replace them later as I wanted to try it out well on the third bolt I heard a Snapp and broke off about 1/2" inside the Hole. So Now I'm trying to figure out what to do? Please no **** talking I already feel like an ***, I need to get this fixed. Thanks ahead, Todd

I have done this about 100 times as I am a mechanic and a machinist. Get the bike as high as you can and still be stable,use a drill bit two sizes smaller than the bolt size,and drill the bolt out. Start out with a small bit and keep going bigger till you get to the big drill bit you chose. Use one of the other bolt as a measuring device so you know how deep to drill. Use tape to wrap around the drill bit to mark it as deep as you need to go so you know when to stop drilling. If the bolt does not break out after using the biggest bit you chose then go one more size bigger. You can use an ice pick break the bolt out in small pieces after drilling. Be very carefull to drill straight and don't push to hard when drilling.
Let me know how this works out for you. I have had to do this alot,I have broken alot of bolts off in alot of different things and this is the way an old mechanic showed me how to do it. It has always worked for me.
