Had a guy come in to my shop for a tire change on a 750 monster. Put my air gun on it (300 ft. pound rating), and it wouldn't budge. Sprayed some PB Blaster on it (good shit BTW), tried again, tried rocking it back and forth, nothing. Fucking thing was welded on. It took my biggest breaker bar, two guys, and a six foot piece of pipe to break the bastard loose. The axle was toast, had to get a new one. Torque spec on the thing was like 67 lbs.

Surprised the rear wheel could even turn with the swingarm pinching it like that! I know your pain though, I've worked on a couple guys' bikes that just tighten everything down until they can't turn it with their 1/2" drive socket anymore. Freakin' fantastic for bolts that get super hot! |

I'm thinking that someone is messing with NTS's account.
