One of my spark plug threads are stripped and I can't get the plug in now Crying or Very sad Is it a tricky job to fix? Someone told me that the heads could go too. I am new to bikes and kind of stuck for transport so I can't get it to a garage at the mo. I'd like to know if anyone else has had a similar problem and is it expensive to fix?

Go and see phil at cambridge motorcycles, he is an old mate of mine, it can be done with the head on the bike, bit tricky but i have done it before.
Tell him that "Rick from R'n'T Fasteners" sent you. Thumbs Up
