Hello,
I over torqued the part that goes in the slide of my carb, the little bolt type deal that the throttle cable links into and it goes overtop the needle?
I stripped the heck out of it and now I think I just should get a new slide because I don't think I'm gonna get it out, I will probably have to cut the slide in half to get the needle out? can I just go to my local dealership and buy a new slide? the carb is a 2004 ESR keihin airstryker 38mm?

use a needle nose plier for vise grip plier,, that should remove it.. for the part go to carbparts.com they should have it for alot less than what a dealer will charge you..

Tried that, I guess I put out a little too much with the 1/4 ratchet :mad:
Anyway thanks for the link...
