    Mine did the same thing. I tried extractors but they broke off in the bolts. I ended up buying a good used bracket to replace mine.

    Another question when I go to start my bike it will only start full choke and after its start it quickly starts to raise rpm stays at 4 or 5k. After driving for a little of I pull the clutch in it also starts to raise rpm any ideas?

    Your carbs are not in synch or you have a vacuum leak , this is why you have a hanging idle , have you tried backing idle knob off ? What condition are your boots in ?

    I have t tried backing the idle knob off yet and the boots have some cracks in them. I was also wondering I drive it for like five minutes the other day and luckily at the end of my ride the bike won't stay running with the choke open and with the choke closed it's starts reving up high same thing or no?
