Use two nuts jammed together on the stud, locktite if needed. If you install it with plyers you'll ruin the threads. Sent via BlackBerry by AT&T

Is removing the studs (on 1993 Nighthawk 750) as simple as channel-locks or vise-grips? As well, is installing them as easy as a rag around the studs with channel-locks? Local Honda mechanics mentioned using pliers to take them out would ruin them (why would anyone reinstall old studs after they take them out??) The Honda mechanics answer everything for me though, even if I ask them the same thing again a couple of months later (it gets hot in So Cal Sun working on my bike :-) They have never been wrong, but they do not elucidate so I need to ask exactly what I need to know, if I can. Maybe its good they do not work on a bike as old as mine, or I might not get all the free advice that I greatly appreciate: in person or on the phone! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Nighthawk Motorcycle Lovers!" group.
