Honda Motorcycle Oil Filter Wrench

Motorcycle Oil filter bolt. This thing won’t come off!!! Help me out!?
I have 1974 Cb550 honda. The Oil filter bolt is stripped very badly
and won’t come off! Do you know any techniques that will get it off? I can’t afford really expensive tools but I do have a craftsman mechanics wrench set. The bolt is too big for 10mm (which is what I think it once was) and too small for 11mm.
Original wrench size does not matter at this point.
Don’t worry about damaging the bolt, it must be replaced.
guardrail jim has given a good method.
You could also grind a slot in it and use a large screwdriver.
Last resort: cut/grind the head right off, slide the housing, spring and filter off, and use a pipe wrench on the remainder. Of course, once you’ve reached this point all the tension has been removed and you could just turn it out with your fingers.
