Triglide 2009 with broken mount bolt in front of engine. It is not the main mount, but attaches frame to engine. Want suggestions of repair? Would welding work?

If it's a broken bolt, get a new bolt.

Or do you mean something different? When you say "in the front of the engine" do you mean it's broken off leaving part of it in the engine casting?

Being a Harley rider he can't be bothered with basic courtesies. No intro or please, or thank you.

If the bolt has broken you need to remove it and replace it with a new one.
To remove it, have you got sufficient thread to grip with Mole grips or similar?
If not, can you tap it with a punch to jar the threads? Then, try to use an extractor.
Finally, can you drill it out, retap new threads and fit a new bolt?

How did the bolt break?

Old Thread Alert!

The last post was made 6 years, 50 days ago. Instead of replying here, would creating a new thread be more useful?
