morning guys

i need to change the rear discs and pads on my vtr but i cant get the discs off. the little location nut has rounded off inside and i cant get anything over it to turn it as there sunk into the disc itself. anybody know a way to get them out?

Drill them out

Yep. Drill it then get some mole grips on the screws stump that's visible once the disc is removed. If you really cant get it out, just grind it flat on the hub and dont worry about it - the caliper holds the disc in the right place when the wheel is off anyway.

thanks guys, my first thought was to drill it out but i wasn't sure if that would cause any issues regarding the new disc. i will attempt to drill them out tonight.
