If the reverse bit didn't work (and there is some bolt head left) you can try slotting with a dremel and backing it out with a flat screw driver.
If not you can just grind off the head of the bolt and try to back out the threaded stem. If there wasn't locktite used on it it should come out rather easily. Your last option would be to drill out a small pilot hole in the screw and try the reverse bit again.
Or - when you decide to take the case completely off, you can grind off what's left of the bolt head, removed the other screws and take off the case. This should leave about 1/4" of the threaded part of the screw exposed and you could back it out with pliers.
Damaged screws and bolts suck

wow very nice paint job there bro. i really like the color you picked for your bike...
gotta love that pitbull wheel lock, i used the same one when hauling my bike to the track.
Man that is a good look right there. I'd have to honk and give you a thumbs up, & if I drove pass you.
And thanks man! I absolutly LOVE the PB Restraint. Just load & lock. I'm all about simplicity.

Yea it is. But it'll be broken up once the decals come in. I need to hit up Kruzel and see how it's coming. That dude stays busy... He was supposed to finish them this past Monday.
But I'm going with the Canadian 08 R6 design. Hopefully, it'll look as good on the bike as it does in my head.

Thank you! I'll try those suggestions out.

Yea they are... But they look sweet though.
The Yoshi's have a good finish on them. It was between those and the Vortex covers which were $26 more. So I just went with the Yoshi's since it won't be permanent. I wanted black, but they don't make them in that color for the R6 yet. Hopefully I'll never have to try them out, but they should work and do the job if I do. The PSR cover on the clutch side is what convinced me to get a cover for the other side when I had my mishap. Now I just need to get an exhaust slider.
