clutch help!!!

[rm250dude]

i took my clutch cover of on my rm 250 2day and i was going to inspect the plates and i noticed that 1 of the bolts that holds the pressure plate down was loose and i figured that this might have been my problem so i went through and tightened all the bolts and SNAP! 1 of them broke off in the inner basket and i wasnt even tightening them down hard .......is there any way to get the bolt that snapped off in the inner hub out??????

[awames76]

is it below the surface or can u get some plyers on it, if its below use an easy out, mine have a left hand bits so sometimes theyll grab and spin out the bolt

[rm250dude]

yeah its below the surface

[awames76]

get a easy out and the correct drill bit and center punch the bolt and dill it and use the easy out to remove, is it smooth or is it rough where its broke off may try a small screw driver or something and try to spin it, if it broke off because of shock load. ive had other stuff do that before

isnt that the truth lol but yeah man nevermind i got it out i took a small straight screwdriver and turned it on the rough surface of the bolt just like u siad and it came right out thanx man

[awames76]

not a prob, didnt think it was stuck just shock load broken, seen it before

yah these clutch bolts are very touchy, i have done this several times, always use a small torque wrench when tightening & go very slow, (1 revolution = 1 minute) after hand tight.
