    Looking to do this very thing and,

    My first thought is to have a welder I know just torch the bolts off. Thinking that when it all cools the part that remains in the head will about turn out by hand. My only experience with this comes from car exhaust manifolds. One time I couldn't get the heads off a hot road project and had a bud burn the bolt heads off, removed the manifolds, and when it all cooled the remainder of the bolts turned out by hand. Did it that way a few times after because buying a set of bots or studs beat hell out of snapping one off.
    Will, or should this work for my GS 1100 exhaust bolts?

      If there is some portion of the bolt sticking out of the head, can you soak it with PB Blaster and/or penetrating oil and then cut a slot in the bolt. Then you might be able to free it with an impact driver and flat-head tip.

        Dude I took it to bored a hole in the bolt heated it and slid in a smaller one with a reverse thread and let it all cool. Then just turned it out lol
