Have you removed the other front one, that'll tell you the depth if you can get it out. Other than that not sure sorry.

When Steve fell off his xb1 the remus exhaust got slightly out of shape busted the stud..he had it taken out and helicoiled for a new bolt not stud..this has since vibrated out a no of times..since the bike is now up for sale..should I and the new owner this could happen a number of times with vibration??

Used to have bolts on my old shovels, always vibrating out and bouncing down the street. Studs were an upgrade... in 1993!

Whoever put a bolt in there needs to stop working on Buells.

Steve needed the bike for getting to work. Did suggest he loosened the whole system put a stud back in with some form of locking compound the tightened it all back up..might as well talk to a damn wall :!!!

I have a mate like that

Bolts are probably a good get me home fix , but not longterm!
