So it looks like engine , clutch and all are good, but the bad news is how to get the sprocket bolts out , i also think i saw a post some where about the Bolts being soft and how some people replaced them with honda bolts. any ideas on best way to get them out and other ideas of stuff to check while i am at it?

The good news is, they won't be hard to get out. The rear sprocket is held on to the wheel with a large external snap ring. The "studs" are a part of the cush drive and simply slot into the bushings in the hub.
Honda OEM studs are part number 90128-ke2-940 to replace the broken one. The chinese versions tend to be very hit or miss in quality, some break, others don't.
