ronded off bolt
a good set of lock pliers should suffice, if not try grinding a slot into the head and use a flathead screwdriver to remove it

Cleaned up MT-03 after crash
aren't you supposed to be restricted to 33bhp for 2 years? , im sure with the power commander and K&N air filter its going to be a little more than 33, if i remember correctly the stock MT-03 is 44bhp? still its a very nice bike, my instructor on my CBT had the MT-01 with heated grips

Introducing myself
from personal experiance, i can say that the performance "pod" air filters are more hastle than they are worth, i had one fitted to my DT50 and it caused it to run rich at mid-revs and bog down, and then run slightly lean at high RPMs

Exhaust Trouble help!
hi there idealy you will need to change the main jet to a larger size to compensate for the higher airflow through the engine because of the new exhaust, you may also want to change your rollers to a lighter set and stiffer clutch springs for faster acceleration take the bike out for a spin and full-throttle it, then cut the engine and coast to a stop,remove the spark plug and check the colour of it on the end (should be a dark brown/chocolate colour or black), if it is white and chalky this indicates a lean running engine which will soon destroy itself

Cleaning the chain.
ha, only in america! , id have thought you had an abundance of minks what with you being out in the middle of the desert
-
Modification
by all means bolt it on, unlike the peds there is no centrifugal clutch or rollers to worry about. however, make sure to keep an eye on your mixture as the increased airflow through the engine will require extra fuel to work properly
-
Cleaning the chain.
Comma chain lube for me, give the chain a good wipe with WD40 and an old rag to remove the grit & shit and give it a good spray with the chain lube

98 thundercat big problems!! help!
could be a clutch problem which (hopefully) wouldnt be the end of the world, however, if the chain amanged to lock the output shaft of the gearbox you could have shredded a gear or sheared a shaft. start with the clutch, take off the engine case and inspect it for any damage, if that checks out then split the cases and give the gearbox a good going over
