As I was splitting the 190XT yesterday I ran into 3 bolts that didn't budge. I used an oxygen/acetylene torch to throw some heat to them.

And I must say a torch takes paint off really quick, I'm wondering why I don't see people on here taking about removing paint with a torch. Also I'm wondering is there any such thing as too much heat on cast metal. I'm trying to get the back wheels off, been soaking them for a week (as best as possible). one guy on here awhile back said he heated his wheel hubs until they were red. Was wondering what you guys think.
