    new clutch system

    or as X said, if the head of the bolt has come off then drill small hole down centre of bolt maybe 2-3mm down and use an easy out, or if theres some thread of the snapped bolt sticking up, cut a slot, if you stripped the thread you can re tap it and put a slightly larger bolt in it
