    Do not "POP WHEELIES" and run for any distance with the ATC. The oil capacity is relatively small and the oil will drain out of the oil pump area thus causing loss of oil pressure, resulting in costly engine damage -CLYMER

    bar holes

    1 and 3. Should be a straight shot across the bolt holes.

    That may explain the extra holes that are there.

    Extra holes? I've never seen an x frame before, and I don't know what's supposed to be there and what's not. Those bare metal marks along the top are from where I cut off the FUGLY frankenstein grab bar that was welded on, I don't see why he'd drill holes, when he was a BRILLIANT welder. My triple clamp bolts were welded, but not so that you couldn't get the bolts off, just so that you couldn't get a wrench on the damn bolt head!!!! I should've taken some pics, but i had to grind most of it off, to get the bolts out.

    Hole Number 2 and the hole to the left of Number 3 are extras.

    oh, well, i guess i'm gonna have to try an easy-out, or drilling and re-threading the stock mounts, cause there's bolts broke off on both sides

    Can you weld something to the end of the bolt to get it out?

    Drill it, use heat and then an easy-out.

    Desperate is one thing, but some people do absolutely retarded things with welders just because they can.

    I can't weld something to it to get it out, because it's broke off inside
