[Ducati] Advice on fixing my 916

[Mike Aquino]

Jules,

Does that clutch bit thread in?

If so you can use a screw extractor to back it out. File the broken part 
flat so you have a clean, flat surface perpendicular to the hole. The 
insert the screw extractor into the bore and slowly turn it counter 
clockwise out of the threads. Like removing a screw without having to 
drill the hole first.

Hope this helps
