Success! Now mount the messed up cup to a piece of wood and use it as a bottle opener.

Nice. How much alcohol was consumed through this process?

a modified version of the Sheldon method and a 1/2" impact wrench made short work of the job. I had some old boat trailer hardware laying on my workbench and a short section of black pipe.

when the impact wrench comes knockin' - threads get moving.

I had never actually seen a davidson in person before, and was thoroughly impressed at the build quality and overall wow factor at this bike. I would love to own one someday. really nice. glad the BB got sorted on this one and it can see some more road miles!
