They are threaded in. Did you snap it off flush with the head?...Better question might be why did you remove it in the first place. The manual says to remove the muffler, at the prechamber, not the system at the heads. If you snapped it off flush with the surface, that is going to be a problem best left to an expert. If you have some sticking out, you can heat the stud with a propane torch, let it cool a little and unscrew it with perhaps a pair of small vice grips. either way, the head pipes will have to come off. Steel studs into aluminum heads are always a tricky situation.

Hi all,
I was tightening my exhaust after taking it off to work on the rear wheel and I over tightened and snapped off the front cylinder top nut/bolt.

I dont see anything in my manual about it or whether I can pop it through like a stud on a disc brake on a car, or not.
Anyone know how to replace these?
Do I have to drill it out and use a nut and bolt?
Any help would be great, I would like to fix it before it starts leaking a lot.
Any info would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.
