The old exhaust mount runs through the swing arm mount, on a huge (inch an 1/8 - I'm guessing) bolt. If I take this off - do I need to put soime kind of a spacer in its place & how the heck do i get the bolt out?

Everytime I order parts for my Buell, I have to go through Harley and it takes like 2 weeks for one stupid bolt to come in. Why is that? Do they only pay people to make parts AS needed?

Also on a side note, what is up with the Harley dogma?
