FS - Caribou Case Kit for Buell Ulysses
I have for sale a brand new set of Caribou Cases for a 2007 Buell Ulysses.

Bought the cases last month and during the install I managed to completely strip the bolt (on my bike, not on the case - they are perfect). Did the grabit, heat gun, air hammer and the won't budge. So I'm giving up. WTF - locktite on the bolt BELOW the seat??? Brought it to the local HD dealer, they have it a shot, but gave up - sucker just won't come out.


Paid 800ish w/tax shipping asking 600 plus shipping (@my cost) or pick up/meet in the greater Seattle area.

I would love to buy that set but will be laid off from my job this tuesday.
You may want to try an old boilermaker trick; Get some beeswax and make some small shaving from it. Heat the bolt and general area, place the shavings around the edges of the bolt. As it cools, it will wick the wax in between the threads and you should be able to remove the bolt using vice grips. Afterwards, run a tap through it and replace the bolt with a new one.
I hope this helps you.
Dan.
