Don't know the year off your bike, but whether or not it's got a allen or a torques head you can take the proper size socket style tool and place in the head and give it a good wack on the back side with a ballpeen. of course let the spray soak for awhile 1st. same as impact if you use breaker bar on socket and rap the bar while trying to turn.
