      Only reason I know of to remove them is to remove the shaft if your replacing shaft seals. And the ends of the bolts are squished to prevent them rattling loose and getting sucked into a cylinder..thats why they dont want to come out.

        Most do not remove them. No issues that I've seen with doing a rebuild with them in. Just make sure you remove all the jets, floats, plugs and screws that are in the rebuild tutorial. Dip, Sonic Clean (optional), poke through every orifice and spray carb cleaner through everything.

              Try Some Butterfly Capers

              You got this far - might as well do the whole hog:

              See My Blog GS1100G - Butterfly Capers

              I was glad that I did as one of the shaft seals was completely absent.

                Yes, VERY helpful.

                This part,

                "I recommend the shortest necessary dip time to reduce expose of the throttle shaft seals from attack by the dip.",

                has made me wonder too, about whether the 24hr dips might be harmful to that part. My dip instructions said 20min or some such...

                  Use ultrasonic cleaning and forgetaboutit.

                    24 hours is just fine, 20 mins won't really help that much
