kinda funny how they showed that with a Harley in the background.. hmmm could it be because they keep vibrating stuff loose... nah can't be that... me and a friend were riding he was on his heritage and his damn heel shifter fell off and damn near hit me in the head.. good thing i was fast and ducked.. livin to ride
It's not about the shape of the handle. It's about how the handle is formed. Do this with most screwdrivers and you will simpley break the shaft loose from the handle. And never try this with a phillips head or slotted screw. OK for TORX and deep hexes. But it is best if you have metal on metal, not metal on plastic on metal. That;s why they make all those torx bits for your ratchets.
Good luck. If the screw is that tight the driver will most likely just cam out of its slot and eventually strip the slot. Usually easier to gingerly (sorry Angel)drill through the screws head, remove what ever the screw is holding down, then remove the remainder of the screw by fingers since the axial load on the threads has been relieved.

I see a new carb for the Dyna very soon...
You race horsepower, but you drive torque.
Useful Toolage. Some have a hex molded to the shank (In metal)Can apply a lot more torque that way.
I see a three way. Consenting, of course.

And all these years I've been chewing up the handle with Vise-Grips...

Sorry ladies, my current bike does not vibrate.....
.....Sigh......
Typo: "lok" = "look"....
Got distracted thinking about tools and their uses.....

Use the right tools.
