Good help guys! I got the pic too. Thanks Paul. That's the bolt I have been reefing on. I used hammer tap with vise grips too and really chewed the bolt up. It is still accessible. I assume counter-clockwise (left-loose). I am on my back looking up. I've moved the entire bike reefing so hard (thought it might collapse on me so asked my son to hold it). I am not sure I am strong enough. Perhaps I should take it in to my car mechanic and see if he wont just losen the bolt for me. I just went on a 30 mile ride today. Purred like a kitten. Do I need to change the oil? LOL.
Great help! Thanks guys.
