[QUOTE="kawaguy, post: 967433, member: 58277"] hi there guys, i have a 1999 kawasaki kx125, when i was changing the top end this weekend one of the cylinder base studs stripped and pulled itself out of the right side engine case, after pissing myself i ran down to the local engineering store to purchase a heli-coil kit, i repaired the thread and stuff and just as i went to tighten it up one last turn, it became easier and easier and holy crap there goes another fresh pair of joks, yea, it stripped the cases again, i did use the kit properly and it went in properly, is it new case time or is there a remedy, i was told by my dealer that the 1999 kx's had a tendency to strip out the studs, so he told me to drill out the hole straight throught to the clutch case, then just poke a bolt through the hole and ill be right, he had a bike in the shop that he had done it on, and it worked fine, no problems, but it looked like a butchers job, someone help me please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
