That's what I did...used an angle grinder to remove bracket and touched up bare metal with Rustoleum paint.

Also washed and oiled the air filter before reassembly.





There sure is a lot of drama just to get to the air filter.

But that's not all. I should have posted this first.

To get to the air filter you need to remove the half side panel, which has it's own surprise:
