Exclamation Snapped brake line holder bolt under triple tree
Hey guys, I have a 06 fat boy that I tried to bolt it on too hard and it snapped, the bolt is stuck in there on bottom of the triple tree with the top screw snapped off, the bolt is long and it is to hold that brake line. Any suggestion? It is okay to just leave it like this? Does that bolt also hold something important in the tripple tree?

Thanks for input!!

FWIW..
He made two threads about the same thing. I gave him some ideas in one of the threads, I wasn't going to type it all out again in his 2nd thread...
