Does anyone have any advice on how to get them out now? -Joe Merlino Boston, MA USA 1982 BMW R100 (decomissioned), 2003 America Triumph: Cool enough for The Fonz, cool enough for me.

May wanna add a dab of PB Blaster or WD 40 to facilitate the screws coming out . 2005 Model . Two Fast Eddy stickers , a bell and a clock . She's Lola .
