NC30 Remove rear Lower engine mounting bolt

Post by ebachs10 » Sat Mar 23, 2019 6:49 am

Hi All

I'm troubling removing the rear lower engine mounting bolt and hope you can help me out, solving the problem.
I have removed the nut on the lefthand side and the castle nut on the righthand side.

Can I hammer it out from the left side of the bike or is it screwed into the frame? (It is not clear to me, via the manual).

Thnaks in advance!

Put the nut back on a few threads and hit it a smack with the hammer to loosen it up. Hitting the pin directly will damage the threads
