Great job - I've certainly learned from your misfortune and I'll attack them in the same way if I ever have to

Michael I agree, see my comments in post number 11. I did try to help by suggesting a search

In my minimal experience,uou'll only get these spokes out by tapping inwards and that means cutting the heads off. Grabbing with mole grips and trying to turn was no use at all in my replacement attempts.

Food for thought.

Will give it a go over the weekend.

 

[Michael R1150GS Adventure]

GRINNING GSER - thanks for your help - very much indeed!

See- told you how to do it.

What a pain. Loads of drilling, twisting with mole grips and punching and eventually got it out.

Guess I need to buy some decent paralell punches. Something else for the tool kit.
