Any ideas on how long this will take a Harley Tech to complete?
It will probably take them 30 minutes to actually do it but they will charge you for 2 hours, because "the book" calls for an hour to remove a broken bolt. Not official, just my guess.
The shop charges $200 to pull broken bolts.. dang. You spray it with PB Blaster to help with the rust, peck it with a hammer a few licks to get the solvent in there, center punch it and drill a little hole and use an EZ out. With the peg off there's no stress on the bolt so they usually turn out easily. In a shop, up on a lift, surrounded by every tool known to man a trained wrench should have it out in 10 minutes. $50 would be more than fair.
