That sucks, if its any consolation my wrenching day didnt go very well either. Got the exhaust springs off and cant get the damn midpipe to separate from the headers:banghead: so now I will drink a beer and take a nap.

Cobalt(sp?) bits...don't even bother with regular bits. Self tapping center punch is also a good thing to have, help start the bit.

I used Dewalt titanium split point bits. Like butter I tell ya, butter!

[Ant]

The R6 was easy. I paid Ron. :lol:

[John712]

well after 10 bits and the 2 trips to home depot, banging my head on my driveway, throwing a wrench, mother effin everybody that drove by, eating 2 cans of beeraroni i was able to get more bits and finish the job on 2 bits only :D

Go slow and use tapping oil or wd40.

[RCM78]

How the hell do you break all those bits? Dont push, let the bit do the work... Ya impatient bastard!!!

[Brian78]

[Jake]

i wonder what bits ralph is gonna use to safety wire my bike?

just make sure he doesn't push and goes slow

the key is to be sure to go straight and easy, to keep the bit from bending/breaking.
though I understand you have a hard time going straight! :)

3/32 bits and use a drill press. 20 sec is all it takes to go clean through a brake caliper bolt.
