Impact doesn't really work either. I still had to drill four of mine out

I got some at Ace hardware. M8x1.25 12mm long, my dealership wanted like 2.80 a bolt. I just laughed all the way out. I think I spend like 5 bucks at ace

You need to drive them in tight with a hammer BEFORE you try turning them. I just swapped out mine. An easier method then drilling is to use an extractor socket, if you have one. If not, some auto parts stores have em. Takes em right out

It's hard to get those bolts my parts stores don't have them and my yamaha store don't either so no I gotta drive a hour and 30min just to get six bolts

When I get bolts what do I have to put in it can I put a hex head bolt in it or the same that came out of it

 

[rowdy_sohc]

Hex will not work because you can not fit a socket around it to tighten it down
