Ok, I thought I was a genius for tapering the end of a broom handle, rather than buy an impact wrench as advised by my local Honda dealer. I quess I am a million in a million, lol. It just works so good. Originally I thought I did the same thing, I thought for sure I stripped the bolt and ruined my forks. One thing I have learned while rebuilding my cb750 is that, just because things look bad, doesn't always mean they are, sometimes.
