Default shifter peg bolt destroyed

Hey guys this is my first post. Love this site so far. I was installing diamond plate shifter pegs on my fatboy and as I was almost all the way in, I think I shredded the bolt and can't get it any tighter or take it off. Anyone have any suggestions for removing the bolt? thanks
