Ok, so whoever last put DOT4 in my KLR's front reservoir is an asshole.

This could very well be some mmechanic at Centurion Lifestyle since they serviced my bike on 8 Aug just before my Lesotho trip.

The (rider's) right hand screw is so friggin tight that the head is just stripping when i try take it out. The other screw was easy.

So assuming that a screwdriver is no longer possible to extract this screw, what are my options?
