    200x engine mounts

    I'm having a hell of a time getting them out and I really don't wanna strip them. Any advice?

    After a good soaking with PB Blaster or Liquid Wrench, if they STILL won't budge, you can always use a little heat. A small propane torch will be enough. Heat the nut up slightly to expand it and break the rust bond. Be careful you don't burn anything you don't want burned. Obviously don't do this anywhere near the gas tank, even if it's empty.

    guys I should point out the bolts prolly aren't rusted on... it's just the fact I outweigh the gent who bought the bike by 200 pounds or so. lol and I torqued the bolts in accordance with my size.

    heave! they'll come off.

    I still have a rubbermaid container of extra 200x crap to ship you. it'll head that way when I get everything seperated out of the spare bedroom and the shop

    in a race 10lbs is good for 1 h.p. ina drag race so imo lighter is faster and if your close to my size that thing should rip
