I was thinking I will have to cut the neck and punch it out... been soaking it with PB
gonna try to punch thru bolt hole one more time.. then get out the cutting wheel
really dont want to cut anything have 2 other bikes from the 40's and 50's
not wanting to mess with them now..ha ha..

Hit it with the Blaster, leave it few days, give it a whack, hit it again, leave again, rinse and repeat. Done that? :? :x Oh well, do it again.

this bike is getting the better of me.. got the goose out.. it was broken in the tube so enough
pressure it gave way. seat clamp is broken and spot welded in place... took it off the stand
and put it away ...
