Installing Riv-Nut ports in the FJR's Headers
When cutting a thread, it's a good idea to temporarily install a nut first. Cut the
thread off beyond the nut, then wind the thread past the end of the nut. If the
thread binds while removing the nut, make sure the thread is not protruding past
the nut and simply tap it against something solid to re-form the thread. In this
case, because the bolt is now so short, it was easier to set it on the anvil of the
vice and tap gently with a hammer.
