I try not to ask stupid questions, yet I've done some searching and cant find anything on this. I have R&G frame sliders, the bold head is 20mm, yet a standard 20mm socket will not fit inside of the frame slider so i cant torque them down. I improvised and got them tight by wedging a large flat head screw driver betwen the bolt head and the slider. I was wondering if anyone else had this problem or if you know of a tool that works well. I've had them on for a while now and need to get them torqued down. Thanks I have an 05 600RR

I posted this up in 600 Mods, not many people comment in there, hope i have better luck here.

 

Have you tried a 6 point thin wall socket? If that still does not work, what i would do is take them out, run over to a Fastenal store (if you have one locally) and get hex head, recessed style, hardened bolts. Or some other configuration that will work out for you.

 

Thanks for the advice.

 

Np, although i kinda screwed up how i typed it. I didnt mean hex head, i meant round with a recessed hex, (ie: like the rearset bolts). Sorry i worded that so crappy.
