going to remove the intake manifold on qlink peg. the other side is of course a regular bolt but this has no gripping edge, no marks lilke someone just messed it, in fact it is chromed. i couldn't tell ya how it was even tightened.
has anyone run into this and am i just missing something? some odd trick? i even tried to turn the whole thing hoping to maybe loosen it but not willing to try to hard and break anything.

looks like a rivet. maybe drill it with a reverse bit.

Looks like a rivet to me also. IF it is I going to be the threads are buggered up.
Did you get the scooter new or did a previous owner do it!

it is chromed with no tool markings and no center, meaning i know it is NOT a rivet. click the pick and you will see

Vice-Grip? Or drill and EZ-Out...
Replace with a proper stud and nut when you are done.

I like the reverse bits, when they bite they back the screw/bolt out.
